Is there an advantage to completing the carpentry program at HCC instead of directly entering the Carpenter’s Union?
Classes at HCC will give you the basic skills and knowledge necessary for the construction industry. Taking HCC classes will give you a good foundation of structured and systematic instruction especially if you have no experience in the field. Completing a degree will waive you from having to complete classroom hours equivalent to five classes once you are accepted into the apprenticeship program. You will also start with a 5-10% higher apprenticeship wage.
