About the program

Texas communities were left devastated after Hurricane Harvey; we continue to rebuild and employ a construction trade’s workforce, as Texas experiences a growing demand for workers in the construction industry. Texas population continues to grow rapidly and Del Mar College (DMC) is committed to providing skills training in carpentry to help students enter the workforce in industries seeking qualified carpenters in the Coastal Bend area.
