Course Report
Item 1. Program Goals and Objectives
Laney College currently offers a wide range of courses in Carpentry. The Associates Degree and Certificate prepares students for a career in the construction industry, either as self-employed carpenters, employees or as General Contractors. Our students are trained in basic construction and advanced practices and methods of construction. We do this by building and remodeling residential homes in the community in cooperation with the City of Oakland and the Oakland Rotary. We emphasize green, sustainable and high performance building. Elements of our program include best building practices in energy efficiency, weatherization and digital fabrication.
Program Outcomes
· Communicate effectively in the technical language of the Carpentry/Construction Trades, including written, verbal and mathematical computation skills.
· Develop a foundation of core skills necessary to safely operate power tools and equipment used to build, repair and remodel homes to current code requirements.
· Analyze building components in order to determine the proper execution of construction or repair.

Item 5. Enrollment and Completer Projections
The enrollment data for the courses included in the Advanced Carpentry CA is shown in the table below. These are the numbers of grades (other than “W”) earned. Only regular semesters (fall and spring) are taken into account.
The data shows a robust growth in the number of students at Laney College who are in majors that require rigorous training in lower-division computer science courses.
