Our timber training experts provide a range of courses, including structural timber design, all of which provide delegates with practical guidance to assist them in future projects.
We can also provide bespoke tailored timber training courses from our offices in High Wycombe or at your own premises.
These specialist courses are run by our in-house experts in timber technology, timber frame and structural engineering.
The courses are highly practical and, to maximize the actual content learned, include a wide range of quizzes, samples, tasks and group working.
Because the courses are delivered in-house, they can be tailored significantly around the questions and areas of interest of the delegates..
All courses have been scheduled for 2024 - please see individual course pages for full details.
Please contact us for more information about any of our timber training courses.
