This qualification provides a trade outcome in carpentry, covering work in residential and commercial applications.

Occupational titles may include:

  • Carpenter
  • Carpenter and Joiner

This qualification has 22 core units of competency requirements that cover common skills for the civil construction industry, as well as 8 elective units. A total of 30 units are required to be completed to achieve the qualification.

The construction industry strongly affirms that training and assessment leading to recognition of skills must be undertaken in a real or very closely simulated workplace environment and this qualification requires most units of competency to be delivered in this context.

The general induction training program specified by the National Code of Practice for Induction Training for Construction Work (ASCC 2007) (otherwise known as a White Card) is required before entering a construction work site. Achievement of the unit “CPCCWHS1001 – Prepare to Work Safely in The Construction Industry” (or its equivalent) covers this requirement.

By successfully completing this program, you will receive a nationally recognised qualification for:

  • CPC30220 Certificate III in Carpentry
