Training provided through the Skills for Life & Work Programme and/ or the ApprenticeshipsNI Programme.
The Joinery training programme equips students with comprehensive skills and knowledge in woodworking and joinery. The programme is divided into three levels, each focusing on different aspects of joinery, from the basics to advanced techniques.
Level 1: Students are introduced to the basic principles of joinery. This includes learning about safety practices, tool handling, and simple joint making. The knowledge and skills gained in Level 1 form the foundation for the rest of the programme.
Level 2: Delves into more complex joinery techniques. Students can learn how to create dovetail joints, door and window frames. Additionally, this level provides a deeper understanding of different types of wood and their properties.
Level 3: Focus on advanced craftsmanship and precision work. This level covers topics like bespoke furniture making, architectural joinery, and introduces students to the use of computer-aided design (CAD) in creating intricate wood projects.
Throughout each level of the programme, sustainability of materials and modern practices in the woodworking industry are also emphasised. This ensures our students are well-prepared for a wide range of professional scenarios in joinery and carpentry.
