Do you have staff with a recognised carpentry and joinery qualification, or many years of experience working as a joiner? If so, the craft carpentry and joinery level 3 Apprenticeship is the perfect course to move them onto the next level with a more advanced and in-depth skills set.
In a world of increasing skills shortages, particularly in this industry, upskilling staff members is an excellent way to close the skills gap and enable your staff to then be able to train the next generation coming into the trade.
This apprenticeship is recognised throughout the sector and will equip your employee with the essential skills, knowledge and qualifications required and also enable them to apply for a CSCS gold card.
Course information
During this course, the apprentice will learn a full range of skills that a fully qualified joiner needs, including -
- health, safety and welfare in construction
- complex mouldings (skirting and architraves)
- double doors (fitting)
- staircases with turns
- complex roofing (with hips, valleys and dormers)
- advanced carpentry repairs
- moving and handling
- work planning and building processes
This apprenticeship standard contains a list of skills, knowledge and behaviours they will need to have learnt by the end of their apprenticeship.
Course duration
18 months plus 3 months End Point Assessment (EPA)
