In our 4-level curriculum, students complete a variety of pre-selected projects that are designed to teach specific tools and woodworking techniques. It takes a student, on average, about 2 years to complete all 4 levels. Once a student passes level 4, they are qualified for our Entrepreneurship Program and can take on custom orders from the community in which the student earns a commission.

Each week the students gather together for their weekly Tool Talk in which they delve into one specific tool, learning the functions and safety of that tool. After at least 5 weeks of practice on that tool, the student takes a proficiency test to show that they can use the tool safely and appropriately. 4-6 proficiency tests are required in each level in order to pass up to the next level.
