Dion Pover

Carpentry & Joinery - Site & Bench C&G Diploma Level 3

“I’d tried a few other things in the past such as plumbing and warehousing and storage but it wasn’t what I was really interested in. I came back to the College to do Carpentry and Joinery and really enjoyed it. I’ve worked really hard and completed Levels 1 to 3 in only 2 years. Thanks to support from the College, and the contacts the teachers have, I’m starting a new job as a Carpenter with a locksmith company.”
