The objective of the Construction & Carpentry Technology (CST) program is to provide students with a broad base of knowledge and skills for employment as entry-level technicians in the construction industry. Students are taught about layouts, blueprints, framing, tool usage, safety, concrete, and finishing. Training will include exposure to drywall, power saws and drills, site surveying, scaffolding, and professional development in the construction industry.

Data is unavailable for one of several reasons: In some cases, the institution has not provided the Workforce Board with data to independently evaluate program performance. We encourage all schools to provide this data on an annual basis. In other cases, the program joined Career Bridge recently and student data has not been reported yet. In other cases, the program is too small or too new to provide reliable results.
