NMCB-1, 22nd NCR, 1NCD, COMPACFLT | Gulfport, MS

Student in the Advanced "Builder" construction school that certified me as a JQR Instructor. In this school I learned all construction methods for prepping, installation and finish of civil work, foundation, concrete forms and reinforcing, masonry, rough carpentry, finish carpentry, wood and metal framing, cabinetry, exterior finishes, interior/ exterior doors and windows, waterproofing, tools and their uses and material estimating. The mission of this certification is for senior NCO's to pass down this knowledge through their lower chain of command (E-1-E4 mainly) through multiple training exercises to build professionalism and quality of work in the construction trade.
