Sheet Metal

(NCCER Contren® Learning Series Course)

NWCC's sheet metal program is a series of training modules divided into four levels. Curriculum is modular in format, competency-based and includes written and performance evaluations. Students who seek the full range of sheet metal skills will gain instruction on fabrication, installation and service heating, venting and air conditioning systems, blowpipe and industrial systems, metal roofing, coping and flashing, stainless steel, duct board and installation, and pipe wrapping.

Students who complete all four levels of this curriculum and obtain four years of on-the-job experience will qualify as a journey-level sheet metal worker anywhere in the nation.

The Sheet Metal program is expected to be authorized to train apprentices by Fall 2006. Some course modules may be required and others may be offered as electives. Learn more about NWCC's Apprentice Sheet Metal program.
