Business Description:
Education, Training, Workforce Development This program provides you with the knowledge and skills you’ll need to gain employment in the growing natural building fields of adobe construction, rammed earth, CEB construction and natural plastering. The program also functions as a stepping stone for entrepreneurs who wish to start a business in the natural building industry (e.g. adobe brick/CEB production, bagged earthen plasters, natural insulation materials). The program also welcomes non-professional, owner-builders who wish to obtain the skills needed to design and build their own adobe home.

- Passive Solar Adobe Design
- Adobe Construction Basics
