Certificate
Learn from professionals to become a qualified carpenter.
Most of your learning will take place on-site while you're studying the Certificate in Carpentry. An experienced trade-qualified assessor will assess your work during regular on-site visits.
The Otago Polytechnic app is a tool that can be used by carpentry apprentices to capture the notes, images, dates and locations of their on-site practical work for assessment.
Offsite training will be provided during day release courses at either the Dunedin or Central Otago Campus (in Cromwell). You will learn through classroom activities and practical tutorials.
All staff are trade and teacher qualified and will provide full support for your learning needs.
