The Prince George campus Residential Construction Framing Technician students decided to lend a hand in helping the community for the quilt fair at the Prince George Exhibition. Sprott Shaw has partnered with the Women in Trades program and will be making 20 quilt stands. These 20 quilt stands will display 80 items at the quilt fair. The Women in trades program is great; all the students are willing to learn.

The Residential Construction Framing Technician students are halfway through there program and have received all their safety certificates. So now it is time for the hands on training and job shadowing which will end with on the job experience that takes place the last two weeks of August.

For the on the job experience they will be building sheds for the Habitat for Humanity. They will be building sheds for the last two homes which were built. Not only do they get job experience but they are doing a great thing by giving back to the community.

For these students who are out in the community helping with the Prince George Exhibition as well as building the sheds for the Habitat for Humanity it is a great way to become known in the community and make some connections. It’s all about networking!
