Carpentry Apprenticeships - Sydney NSW
A carpentry apprenticeship is a structured training program with a mix of on site learning and class based learning. This allows carpentry apprentices to learn the trade while working and earning a wage. A Carpentry Apprenticeship typically lasts four years. The combination of a Certificate III in Carpentry, obtained at a registered training organisation like TAFE NSW or other vocational institutions and an onsite Mentor training / sign off, makes up a carpentry apprenticeship.
If you like the idea of being a carpenter and have a true desire to learn the trade, doing an apprenticeship with Get it Done will develop you into a well-balanced carpenter.
You will work on different sites with different carpenters / mentors and carry out a range of carpentry tasks.
You will learn the tools of the trade, what tools you need and how to use them. The importance of building and maintaining your own kit will quickly become apparent. Those that realise this start to really learn, they begin to use their tools every day and begin to understand them. Grabbing the right tool for the job will become second nature.

You will earn as you learn with any apprenticeship, the difference is realised as you develop your skills and efficiencies. A master of their craft is truly an asset to any project.
