Certificate III in Cabinet Making

Tailor your training to suit your career goals with our flexible apprenticeship course.

You can specialise in free-standing furniture design and making by studying subjects like fabricating custom pieces and hand-making timber joints.

Or you can focus on fitting out kitchen and bathrooms by learning about creating and installing cabinets for the built-in environment.

Whichever area you choose, we'll make sure you're confident with important business skills like working in a team, estimating and costing a job and delivering a quality service to your customers.
