Construction Apprenticeship AAS

Associate of Applied Science

Trades and Industry

This program is offered in partnership with NIC's Workforce Training Development and Career Technical Education division. It is specifically designed for students who have completed a federally approved Construction Apprenticeship program consisting of 8,000 hours of on-the-job training and 576 hours of classroom instruction.

The Carpentry program helps learners to build general carpentry skills, before moving into advanced topical coverage of framing and finishing carpentry, as well as concrete and form carpentry. The unique three-tier approach to Carpentry complies with the U.S. Department of Labor's standards for apprenticeship programs, while also supporting short programs focused on specific carpentry career pathways.

Upon completion of the full apprenticeship program, transcription of credits must be initiated by contacting NIC's Workforce Training Center. Completion of general education requirements may occur before, at the same time, or after completion of the apprenticeship courses.
