    Description
    In this course, students learn introductory construction skills used by Sheet Metal Workers, Electricians, Painters, and Plumber/Pipefitters. Through in-person expert demonstrations for each trade and under the guidance of their instructor, students join pipe, assemble sheet metal, pull conductors, and paint. Students also learn history, safety practices, trade norms, tools, working conditions, and methodology used for each trade. Students may also learn about other building trades via special guest speakers. For lab instruction, travel is required to various training centers in the Fresno metropolitan area. (A)
