About the program

The Advanced Carpentry Technology diploma is an exciting opportunity to earn the technical and career-ready skills you need to succeed as a carpenter in the construction industry. This two-year diploma is an alternative pathway into the carpentry trade without having to be a registered apprentice first.

In this program, you will focus on theory and hands-on training with the materials and processes required to construct, renovate and repair residential and commercial buildings and structures. You will also have the opportunity to explore new and emerging technologies and systems such as High-Performance Energy Efficient building systems and trade related software.

Future Apprenticeship Pathways

NAIT’s trade diploma programs offer practical, hands-on education, combining technical training with applied learning and industry-relevant experience. For students interested in pursuing an apprenticeship pathway in the future, additional assessments or requirements through Apprenticeship and Industry Training (AIT) may apply depending on the trade and apprenticeship stream. Please contact program staff or AIT for more information.
