Carpentry Career Certificate (CARP-VC)
The Vocational Certificate in Carpentry prepares students for a career in carpentry as a residential or small commercial carpenter, remodeler, trade foreman, project superintendent, or residential contractor. The program emphasizes both hands-on training and theory to acquire carpentry skills, and building knowledge that can lead to being your own boss. This 1200 clock hour program leads to certifications from the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER), and the Pensacola State College Vocational Certificate in Carpentry. Students learn to design and construct crafted, safe, healthy, comfortable, affordable, resource efficient, durable and resilient houses, based on current building science principles, sustainable design strategies and mainstream green building practices, using appropriate (climate specific) building materials, systems and technologies. Each student is strongly encouraged to consult an advisor or counselor prior to course registration.
