Objectifs du programme

The Cabinetmaking program prepares the candidate to become a cabinetmaker. A cabinetmaker manufactures products out of wood, veneer and laminate, such as furniture, and residential, commercial, industrial and institutional furniture. A cabinetmaker also manufactures architectural products such as paneling, trim, interior doors and windows for homes, stairs, balconies, etc.

The work consists of planning the manufacturing of a project, making an object, assembling pieces, sanding and preparing a product for finishing, installing the product where permitted and providing technical support.

Cabinetmakers work mainly in companies that do custom work for original products according to a client’s request. A smaller number work in assembly lines as well as microbusinesses.

These prerequisites, in place for those aged at least 18 years at the start date declared for the vocational training program, are: successful completion of the general development test (GDT) and obtaining and passing the tests relative to the specific prerequisites in the language of instruction and mathematics, if applicable.

This table indicates the new course codes for common core basic education (CCBE) and diversified basic education (DBE) required for the specific prerequisites in language of instruction and mathematics for the targeted program of study. In the cases where the new course codes for the CCBE and the DBE are in progressive implementation, the old codes are indicated in parenthesis and are still valid.

When a DVS does not require any specific prerequisites in language of instruction or in mathematics, a (-) will be displayed in the appropriate field. Please note that the functional prerequisites do not apply to attestation of vocational specialty (AVS) programs.

Ébéniste

Les ébénistes dessinent et fabriquent des meubles, des modules et des produits en bois et en matériaux composites. Ils réalisent des gabarits et des assemblages (aronde, mortaise, tenon, etc.), coupent, délignent, collent, assemblent et sablent le bois avant d’effectuer la finition (peinture, vernis, placage, etc.). L’ébénisterie est un métier traditionnel qui exige minutie, créativité et habiletés manuelles. Un emploi d’ébéniste convient aux personnes qui aiment travailler seules et qui sont douées en dessin.
