TESDA Training Regulations for Carpentry
TESDA Training Regulations for Carpentry
The TESDA Training Regulation (TR) for Carpentry Services provides clear guidelines and standards for training individuals in the field of carpentry. It is designed to help learners gain the skills needed to build, install, and repair wooden structures used in residential and commercial construction.
Through this training, students learn how to measure, cut, and assemble wood and other materials using both hand tools and power tools. It also includes topics on reading construction plans, safety practices, and compliance with building codes and standards. Learners are taught to perform tasks accurately and efficiently, preparing them for real-world carpentry work.
The program typically follows the Carpentry NC II qualification level, where trainees are expected to carry out carpentry tasks independently with minimal supervision. Upon completion, students can receive a National Certificate (NC) which serves as proof of their competency and can help them access better job opportunities locally and abroad.
This training regulation ensures that carpentry workers are well-prepared, skilled, and aligned with the needs of the construction industry.
