Students construct sheds during their first year, then apply those skills to construct a house for Habitat Humanity. Students also may have the option of learning finish carpentry skills. The program employs a standardized curriculum developed by and consistently updated by construction trades industry experts through the National Center for Construction Education and Research (NCCER).
