Designed for those with little to no prior experience, this course walks learners through every aspect of getting started in woodworking—from understanding different types of wood to mastering foundational techniques and building practical projects with your own hands.
Starting with a warm welcome to the world of woodworking, the course introduces students to the importance of safety, tool handling, and wood selection. You’ll gain insights into wood types and grades, learning how different materials behave and which are best suited for specific projects. Safety is a key priority, with in-depth lessons on safe workshop practices, proper use of safety gear, and workspace organization to ensure a productive and hazard-free environment.
You’ll then explore essential hand tools like saws, chisels, and planes, as well as power tools such as drills, sanders, and jigsaws.

The final module focuses on common troubleshooting tips, tool maintenance, and a recap to ensure learners leave confident and ready for their next woodworking challenge.
