These programs prepare highly skilled carpenters to construct the next generation of sustainable buildings using cutting-edge materials and installation techniques.

UBC carpenters have played a critical role in delivering some of North America's most groundbreaking mass timber projects, including the record-setting Ascent tower in Milwaukee and INTRO in Cleveland—demonstrating the expertise, precision, and professionalism required to build the future.

With more than 500,000 members across North America, the UBC provides contractors with a dependable, highly trained workforce capable of meeting the demands of today's most complex construction projects while delivering superior quality, productivity, and a lasting competitive advantage.
