Masonry training in North Carolina

5 masonry programs with costs, results and funding that can make them free

3 schools offer these masonry programs, and North Carolina has approved every one for workforce funding. Each shows its price if you pay yourself and how past students did.

Masonry workers use bricks, concrete and concrete blocks, and natural and manmade stones to build structures; bricklayers, cement masons and concrete finishers, stonemasons and terrazzo workers are all masons. Most need a high school diploma or equivalent and learn the trade through an apprenticeship or on the job; unions and contractor associations sponsor apprenticeships, and many technical schools offer masonry programs, some of them run together with apprenticeship training.1

In North Carolina, 3 of the 5 programs take students without a high school diploma and 2 ask for earlier courses first.

By kind, the 5 programs here are NCCER masonry level or intro course (4 programs) and concrete finishing course or certificate (1 program).

Where the North Carolina masonry program numbers come from

Which North Carolina masonry programs are on this list?

These are the masonry programs North Carolina approved for WIOA funding (public workforce funding under the Workforce Innovation and Opportunity Act), as reported to the US Department of Labor for program year 2024 (July 2024 to June 2025). Each state keeps its approved programs on an eligible training provider list (ETPL).9 The list here covers programs approved as of June 30, 2025. Schools that never applied for approval are missing, so this is a part of what North Carolina offers.

How the prices and results of North Carolina masonry programs are measured

Prices are tuition and required fees for someone paying without workforce funding, as the school reported them; check the current price with the school. Results describe students who left each program in recent years, so they are no guarantee, and the yearly earnings are the reported quarter times four, an estimate. A program without a "Trained with WIOA funding" line may still take WIOA students. Where a field was left empty or withheld, the page says "Not reported", and "Left out" where a figure was filed but failed one of our checks; nothing is estimated to fill a gap. Where the numbers come from explains each figure in full.
