When it comes to residential construction, many people assume there’s no job to be done except the actual construction itself. There’s so much that goes into building a house, though, and not all of it requires years and years of education or hard manual labor. The role of drafting in the world of construction is a vital one, and at ITI Technical College, we provide a fantastic School of Drafting and Design<\/a>. In order for you to see just how pivotal the role of drafting education\u00a0in residential construction, we’ve highlighted some on the job characteristics that should speak for itself.<\/p>\n

A Drafting Career in Residential Construction… What That Might Look Like for You<\/h2>\n

\"Drafting<\/em>Since our founding in 1973, we at ITI Technical College<\/a> have provided training programs that exist based on the needs of the time and of the business and industrial community. Have you looked around lately? The housing market, as it is now and has been for a few years, is at an all time high. New construction is popping up all around us, meaning the demand for drafting jobs in residential construction is there in full force. Even if the housing market drops, people will still need homes; and as long as our population continues to grow rapidly, homes will still be a business market.<\/p>\n

Simply put, drafting in residential construction is a career that exists out of necessity, which makes the career a stable and dependable choice. Expect things to get interesting, as well, as today’s residential construction capitalizes on energy efficiency, convenience for its inhabitants, and aesthetic appeal.

You might be thrilled with idea of becoming a drafter for residential construction, but simultaneously wondering what type of income and flexibility you’ll have. After all, job excitement alone won’t pay the bills. On average, a CAD certified drafter may expect a median pay of $52,720 annually, though that depends on where you live and how much experience you have. Typically CAD drafters and designers keep the hours of their counterparts in the industry, though there’s a bit more flexibility in the location of the work since all that’s needed (for the most part) is a computer. \u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n
