Most up to date training available

It's becoming more and more clear that the conventional educational paths offered for joinery are wholly out of date. They take too long to finish, they have one trainer teaching up to 20+ people, prevent people from reaching their full potential, and don't provide specialised, in-depth instruction in the newest and most effective carpentry techniques. At SOC, we pledge to provide everything listed above and guarantee 1 trainer per 3 trainees to support the success of our students.

The instructors were knowledgeable and passionate, creating a great learning environment. The course covered everything from design to installation, with a good balance between theory and hands-on practice. I gained valuable skills and confidence in my abilities. I highly recommend School of Carpentry for anyone interested in mastering stairs and balustrades."

"Couldn’t recommend SOC enough for anybody looking to venture into joinery. I completed the doors & casings course. Everything went smoothly & I had no complaints. I have recently carried out some of my own work for my own customers for the first time. Big thanks to School of Carpentry."
