13BCT

Tiny House Project

Course Description

Level 3 BCT gives students a pre-trade like course with six Level 3 apprenticeship theory units available. The tiny house project will give students the experience of residential house construction from the ground up and the skills and processes needed to become a carpenter. There will also be the opportunity for involvement with sub-trades such as plumbers, electricians and roofers. Trade associated field trips will give insight into the production of materials being used on site. Safety will be a major focus and there will be on-site courses to reinforce this area of learning.
