More Than Carpentry Apprenticeship Program

Four-year apprenticeship resulting in a Journeyman Certificate issued from the Department of Labor Office of Apprenticeship. As employees of CCU, apprentices learn the trade of carpentry on-the-job while earning wages. MTC sponsors the mentoring and text-book style learning that occurs off the job. This Biblical model allows apprentices to practice newly acquired carpentry skills under the direct supervision of qualified carpenters while working on real-time projects. Apprentices are developed while they are mentored and guided through life skills coaching, personal financial management, critical thinking, and Bible Study.
