About the Woodwork Career Alliance

It’s difficult to find and keep skilled workers, and it’s difficult for woodworkers to demonstrate their skill sets during the interview process. As such, the industry needs a means for both recognizing skills and rewarding achievement. The Woodwork Career Alliance meets that need.

The Woodwork Passport Program leads to professional credentials for woodworkers and a pool of demonstrated talent for employers. Learn more about the Woodwork Career Alliance and the Woodwork Passport Program, by visiting woodworkcareer.org/.
