Description

Inland Northwest AGC is running SkillsUSA State Carpentry this year! 

The state carpentry competition within SkillsUSA is a vocational event where high school and college students demonstrate their skills and knowledge in carpentry-related tasks. Participants typically compete in challenges such as blueprint reading, framing, finishing carpentry, and cabinetry. 

They showcase their abilities in areas like precision cutting, joinery, installation techniques, and interpreting construction plans. Judges evaluate competitors based on their technical proficiency, adherence to safety protocols, efficiency, and attention to detail. Additionally, contestants are assessed on their ability to problem-solve, work effectively under pressure, and communicate effectively with team members and judges. 

Winners of the state carpentry competition may advance to the national level, where they have the opportunity to represent their state and compete against participants from across the country. Participation in SkillsUSA competitions, including the state carpentry competition, provides students with valuable experience, recognition, and potential pathways to future educational and career opportunities in the carpentry and construction industries.
