units for bench/site are:<br />
Doors » Windows » Stair cases » Roofs » Floors » Fitting and fixing moulds<br />
The above units are a combination of Site or Bench. At level 2 the learner will choose one route<br />

will have a good degree of knowledge on joinery and will be able to work on site. Assessment<br />
is through observation and written tests.<br />

Qualification<br />
CSkills (Construction Skills) Diploma level 3 in Wood Occupations<br />
What will I study?<br />
This course consists of you completing a number of work-related units following either a<br />
Bench Joinery or a Site Carpentry route. Theoretical units are the same for both joinery and<br />
carpentry which involve: Project based theory » Basic site management » Calculations and<br />
estimations » Solving geometric problem.<br />
Examples of Bench Joinery are: Setting out and making curved components.<br />
Site Carpentry elements include: Setting out and making a geometrical roof » Fitting site<br />
components such as doors, windows and floors<br />
These are achieved through assessment by observation, questioning and practical phase test.<br />
Moving on<br />
This exciting new course will equip students for progression in the field of Environmental<br />
Technology, an area widely acknowledged to be suffering skills shortages or progression<br />
could be to a HNC or HND in a related subject (such as Environmental Conservation) at another<br />
college, or they can progress onto a Level 3 NVQ if they are in employment<br />
