Residential Construction Program: Part 1

Student Reviews

“I loved this program and learned so much. Andy is an outstanding teacher.”

"This program gave me greater knowledge, better understanding and a space to hone my skills, plus a network with other students that, I hope, will benefit our careers in the future."

"The experience helped me navigate a career change. I was able to use the program to start as an apprentice with a homebuilder and then leverage my new knowledge with my other professional experiences to move into a PM position."

"The instructor was of great help and full of knowledge. The fun part was using the shop and learning with others from different fields."

"We saved ourselves tens of thousands of dollars on home projects, which was our goal.  So the class was absolutely worth it."

"I started my own handyperson business after completing the program."

"The mixture of classroom and hands-on learning provided an opportunity to apply the techniques we were learning in person and get immediate feedback. The informal setting allowed everyone to ask questions as we went along, allowing each person to get insights on other projects/jobsites/approaches."

"Gave me a much-needed confidence boost! I feel like I have the fundamentals that I will need to bring with me into troubleshooting both in the office and on the jobsite."

"I highly support this program and would 100% do it again. I would recommend this path to anyone looking to make a career transition or increase their industry knowledge to grow in their career."

"I've gained a lot of confidence in how to approach projects and communicate about project requirements."

"We have since demoed part of our house, reframed 21 window openings, resheathed our entire house, rebuilt stairs, etc. None of which was even concievable to us before this class."

"I learned significantly more about building than I knew before, and met great people."
