Become a qualified cabinet maker.
Qualification Description
Workers with this qualification have tradesperson-level skills in the manufacture and/or installation of products, including furniture and cabinetry, made from timber and other materials.
They have core skills in tool use, measuring, drawing (including computer-aided design), interpreting work documentation, preparing cutting lists, communication, teamwork, and safe and environmentally sustainable work practices. They may have specialised skills in wood machining, cabinet and furniture making, kitchen and bathroom construction and installation, marine cabinetry, coopering or drafting.

The training was absolutely superb and I genuinely enjoyed each and every task of it. The content was extremely informative and incredibly useful. I have attended several trrainings before but I can’t recall any of them having such a strong impact. You have done a wonderful job and I appreciate your efforts. Training staff is very professional. Matthew Hughes is a very engaging and professional trainer.
