CARPENTRY AND JOINERY, PAINTING AND DECORATING
If you’re looking to train for a career in carpentry and joinery
or painting and decorating, you will find a great range of preapprentices, apprentice and trade courses at Edinburgh College.
All our courses will give you the practical skills you need to either
progress onto an apprenticeship, continue onto a more advanced
trade course or move into employment.
Courses provide you with practical experience on live jobs, to give
you a taste of what it’s like to work in your trade of choice. We
also work with professional bodies including Construction Skills,
(the Sector Skills Council and Industry Training Board for the
Construction Industry) and CITB (Construction Industry Training
Board). This will help you to find employment or an apprenticeship
following your course.
We offer courses at a range of levels, from Pre-Apprentice to
Professional Development Awards.

CARY SMITH
Cary Smith completed Adult and Professional
Development Award Level 7 in Carpentry and
Joinery (Advanced Craft C and J Certificate).
“I found the course amazing. The knowledge
and skills learnt in college have allowed me to
excel within the carpentry and joinery trade.
The course is well rounded and you learn all
01 Edinburgh College
aspects of carpentry and joinery from on-site
work to bench work. The lecturers have a good
understanding and knowledge of the course,
they helped me achieve my goal to become
a great joiner. Since attending this course
at college, I have been privileged enough to
be invited to enter competitions on behalf
of the college. This has helped me with time
management and troubleshooting, not
to mention gaining new skills. I am very
happy with this course and I would like
to thank the lecturers and support staff
at Edinburgh College for assisting me
in becoming a fully qualified joiner.”

RYAN CAW // EXCELLENCE AWARD
Excellence Award in Carpentry, Joinery,
Painting and Decorating in the
FE Awards 2014
“The time I spent at Edinburgh College
was very enjoyable and beneficial and
played a huge role in the development
of the skills and knowledge needed
within my trade. I completed my first
two years studying the Carpentry and
Joinery course and then went on to do
a further year of study on the Advanced
Craft Course offered at Edinburgh
College. This is where I took great pride
in being awarded the Excellence Award in
Carpentry and Joinery at the FE Awards
2014. This was a great achievement
for me and is not only something I am
immensely proud of but something that
I think really signifies all the hard work
that I put into the course.
03 Edinburgh College
In the Advanced Craft course I was also
given the opportunity of representing
the college in the Worshipful Company
of Joiners and Ceilers award in London,
a competition against other apprentices
of the same skill set. This experience
was second to none and I was deeply
honoured to be chosen to take part on
behalf of Edinburgh College. It was also a
great place to test my skills and see how
I placed against others. Throughout my
studies I have learned many skills and
worked on a variety of projects, but I
feel I owe my success to the professional
training and guidance from the many
lecturers and staff I have been lucky
enough to have worked with over my
time at college”.
