Cornerstone Crew Leader Training 

Crew Leader Training is designed for those experienced in residential construction.  The class prepares skilled volunteers to lead crews of unskilled volunteers on our Habitat for Humanity GLA sites.  Students will learn valuable leadership skills and practice teaching and coaching others.  We cover hand tools and power tools, framing, sheathing, roofing, window and door installation, siding, drywall, installing case and base and painting.  The course is taught by people who have spent years volunteering on our construction sites in leadership roles with Habitat for Humanity.   

Participant Qualifications: 

• Extensive construction skills and experience including all phases of construction. 
• Volunteer with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Los Angeles at least three (3) times before the training begins.
