Description:
With limited time and resources, how can we cover the essential program objectives while integrating concrete, community-based projects that give meaning to the training?
These sessions offered a practical, hands-on reflection of the teaching of carpentry programs in communities.
We explored participants’ teaching preferences and challenges as well as shared approaches, tools, and strategies developed over time related to the planning, teaching, and evaluation of competencies in the carpentry program. Participants explored how to adapt these resources to their various local realities.
Presenters:
Jovan Mercier
Carpentry Instructor
For many years, I have been traveling around the world and more lately across Canada and Quebec. I have a genuine interest in people and their story. Teaching has become a passion and a vocation.
I love the carpentry trade and I understand how empowering it can be. My specialty is shop organization and space optimization to create ideal learning environments. My intention would be to travel to different communities and share my expertise.
Alexandre Lavoie
Carpentry Instructor
I value community engagement, which I believe fosters meaningful and unifying initiatives. Guided by these values, I worked as a carpenter on innovative projects while sharing my expertise with others.
In my teaching career, I have developed strong expertise in creating multimedia educational content and designing training programs, fostering collaboration. I aim to share in a way that meets your specific needs.
