About us
After years working on building sites, it became clear there’s a gap between college-taught carpentry and what’s actually expected on site.
Worthy Carpentry Academy was set up to bridge that gap – providing a clear blueprint for how sites run, what’s expected day to day and how to turn up competent and ready to work.
This is real-world training, taught by a working carpenter in small, focused groups.
Our course
In 10 sessions, you will learn:
- Safe and confident use of hand and power tools.
- All aspects of 1st/2nd fix and finals.
- Core site carpentry tasks and techniques.
- How building sites operate day to day.
- Site standards, reliability and work ethic.
- Guidance on CSCS card.
There is potential for site work after the course for those who apply themselves and perform well.
This course is for beginners, improvers and career changers.
Our Services
Hand & Power
Tool Essentials
You'll be taught how to confidently and safely use the tools you'll use on site.
From hand tools to core power tools, you'll learn correct setup, safe-use, accuracy and techniques used day to day on
building sites.
Small focused groups
Hands-on training with real attention. We keep groups small so everyone gets proper guidance, real feedback and time on the tools. Everything is based on day-to-day site work - not classroom theory.
Site-Ready
training
Learn what college doesn't teach. This course is built around real site work.
For those who do well, there's potential for work afterwards through trusted industry contacts.
