Wood design
and contemporary carpentry
A three-year training experience, designed for those with innate manual ability and a very practical attitude. A pathway dedicated to youngsters who have finished middle school at 14, which will see them become woodworkers, with a nationally recognised qualification.
Forget about the artisan who works the wood in his workshop. Those who graduate from the Artwood Academy are modern era carpenters – fully developed, skilled at working with wood and other raw materials, masters of 4.0 technologies, and able to use innovative tools and CNC machinery. Ready to revolutionise the tradition.
Duration: 3 years. 30% of the hours are dedicated to a traineeship at a company in the sector.
Opportunities: to test oneself in the field, to contribute to promoting and developing the tradition and processing of wood.
Having succeeded in becoming a Woodworker, at the end of the three-year pathway, students will have the opportunity to enter the world of work, or they can opt for an additional year of training to become a Wood Technician. They will learn how to manage the production process, organise the work of others, coordinate the procurement process and select the materials required for production.
Duration: 1 year.
Opportunity: To continue to specialise in the wood furniture sector and obtain a qualification that can grant access to Advanced Technical Training, in the form of an IFTS pathway.
