Current students, please make sure to review your MyHumber Academic Progress report to confirm which courses you should register into for your Winter semester. Courses with in-person requirements will likely also have online components. Humber may need to change plans for in-person learning, subject to government and public health directives and/or additional health and safety considerations.
Upon successful completion of the program, a graduate will:
Solve routine technical problems related to shop environments using a variety of systemic approaches.
Interpret and produce graphics and other standard technical documents necessary for the installation, maintenance, repair, and manufacture of components.
Complete all work in compliance with health and safety legislation and prescribed organizational practices and procedures.
Perform basic technical measurements using appropriate tools.
Install, manufacture and repair components to required specifications using shop tools and equipment.
Demonstrate professional behaviour in accordance with industry associations’ practice standards, procedures and ethical guidelines.
Execute mathematical operations required to solve routine problems.
Expedite tasks using computer skills and technological tools.
Demonstrate interpersonal skills in working in a team.
Students spend the majority of their time working in our 10,000-square-foot dust-controlled woodworking lab furnished with skylights. The lab includes a student bench area for assembly, an overflow area for student use outside of their scheduled class time, a kitchen cabinet installation area, as well as a spray booth for cold spraying lacquer.
Most common industrial woodworking machines are available for student use. The process of veneering is taught utilizing a hydraulic hot press and stitching machine. Vacuum pressing technology is used for curved forms and specialty veneering. Students have access to three computerized (CNC) routers, a CNC lathe and a CNC dovetailer. A dedicated electronic classroom is available for lectures.
Richelieu, Formica, and Upper Canada Forest Products have graciously donated 20 AWMAC (Architectural Woodwork Manufacturers Association of Canada) manuals to our students in the Industrial Woodworking Technology and Cabinet Making programs. This contribution will be greatly appreciated by our students!
Congratulations to all of the honors students who could make it to the annual "Skilled Trades Honors Breakfast"!
The graduating classes of the Cabinet Making and Industrial Woodworking programs showed of their great work at the Cabinet Making Showcase
Employer interest in our graduates has grown steadily during the program’s history. We offer a comprehensive program that provides a solid grounding in woodworking and prepares students for employment in a wide range of areas including store fixtures, architectural millwork (doors and windows), the kitchen cabinet industry, and furniture construction.
Our advisory committee of industry professionals reviews our curriculum and ensure that students are receiving relevant training to prepare them for work in a range of woodworking related fields.
