The Oak Frame Training Forum is a body which has been formed by The Carpenters’ Fellowship with the help of government funding via Construction Skills (until recently called the Construction Industry Training Board, or CITB).

Its aim is to cater for the needs of the oak frame industry and those employed within the industry in the following ways :

1. To provide skills training in oak framing and its associated trades and activities.
   

2. To provide routes to qualification for those employed within the industry.
   

3. To provide assistance and support to our members in regard to their training and H&S requirements.
   

4. To organise building projects that will benefit communities and charitable causes.
   

5. To organise events with lectures, workshops and seminars and to bring together those involved, directly or indirectly, with oak framing
   

6. To showcase this form of construction and bring to the attention of the wider construction industry and the public the skills and professionalism found within this sector.
   

Among the pages of this website you will find a variety of events and courses along with details of how to enroll.

We welcome your feedback and will be very happy to  consider running any manner of course that falls within our remit to provide for the oak framing community.
