Overview

College Diploma in Woodworking Technician

As a student in the Woodworking Technician program at Conestoga College, you will study at one of North America's most advanced woodworking training facilities. 

You will receive a solid foundation in the skills and techniques involved in manufacturing furniture, cabinets and architectural millwork, as well as training in modern manufacturing techniques. 

During the first year of the program, which is common with the Woodworking Technology program, you will spend a significant amount of time learning the set-up and operation of woodworking machinery and equipment, laminating, veneering, machining, sanding, assembly and finishing. 

The second year, which is also common with the Woodworking Technology program, involves extensive project work, introduction to production management skills, manufacturing of kitchen cabinets and architectural millwork. 

Levels 1, 2 and 3 of the trade schooling for an Ontario cabinetmaker apprenticeship are embedded in the program and will provide you with a recognized advantage when starting your career. 

You may be exempt from apprenticeship in-school training should you pursue a Cabinetmaker Apprenticeship.
