Welcome to StonemasonryBy enrolling on this course you begin your training as a stonemasonry apprentice. Over the next two years you will develop your abilities as a stonemason by learning new skills in the College and applying them on site. Your training will be split between the classroom and the workshop. In the classroom you will learn about the technology behind the work you do in the workshop. In the workshop you will learn to shape and build stones for use in a variety of structures.
