Filipino Support Carpentry Classes
KUMUSTA PO . . . HELLO
The Filipino Support classes are designed to help Filipino carpentry apprentices who need extra support with gaining a better understanding of key carpentry topics and Kiwi building terminology, even though they may have years of building experience behind them.
- We cover the core Carpentry theory topics required for your New Zealand Certificate over 3 x 10-week blocks (3 stages).
- You can start with any stage (1, 2 or 3).
- Classes are held weekly, after work, from 6pm-7.30pm.
Our classes are effective because we limit the class size, work at a slower pace and give ample time to allow people to ask questions and work together to find solutions. We make sure that everyone feels safe and comfortable to optimise learning and that we are culturally appropriate. It is a safe space for those who may feel embarrassed about their English pronunciations and/or just need the opportunity to have things explained to them. Please note, classes are conducted in English.
All classes are ONLINE using Zoom so you can work from the comfort of your own home after a busy day at work.
You will need wifi, a mobile and/or computer/laptop with a working camera and sound, to join in the classes.
BCITO provides these classes for FREE to their apprentices.
