Working both independently and collaboratively, students develop technical skills, problem-solving abilities, and an understanding of workplace expectations, including producing quality products that meet customer requirements within specified timeframes and budgets. These experiences prepare students for further training, apprenticeships, and employment in a variety of trade and industry pathways.
