I Build VT

🎓 Congratulations to our Spring 2026 Carpentry Apprenticeship graduates! 🔨

Last night, we had the honor of celebrating the hard work and dedication of this incredible class at their graduation ceremony at Manchester Community College.

As the proud sponsor of this Carpentry Apprenticeship Program, we couldn't be more proud of what these graduates have accomplished. They've built the skills, knowledge, and work ethic to thrive in the carpentry trade, and we can't wait to see everything they build next.

Thank you to our partners at Apprenticeship NH, Manchester Community College WDC, and North Branch Construction for making this program possible. Here's to the next generation of skilled tradespeople in New Hampshire! 🏗️
