Home Renovation

Program Description

SAIT’s Home Renovation courses are designed for those who want to renovate an existing space or build in an undeveloped area of their home. This unique program simulates a basement development through sequential hands-on courses. Homeowners and renovation contractors will discover and practice design, estimation and building techniques that can be immediately applied to their own projects. Courses are offered in SAIT’s state-of-the-art building and design labs at our main campus and taught by industry experts in the fields of architecture and trades.

Courses may be taken individually by anyone who has a home renovation or improvement project they wish to tackle or by those looking to build on their skillset; learners must complete six of the available courses to be awarded a certificate.

Note: This program is eligible for the Canada-Alberta Job Grant.
