Tell me about your education. How has it prepared you for a career as a woodworker?

Describe your education, listing any diplomas or degrees received, and highlight courses or an apprenticeship that prepared you to work as a woodworker. Avoid embellishing your education and saying you are more educated than you are. The interviewer can ask for school transcripts to verify your claims, and you do not want to appear dishonest.

"I am a high school graduate and received my diploma three months ago. While in high school, I took two years of shop classes where I learned how to work with wood, and that is when I became interested in a career as a woodworker. I am enrolled at the community college and am taking advanced woodworking classes. I will receive my associate's degree in fine woodworking in less than two years. My education has prepared me for a career as a woodworker by providing me with the knowledge and skills needed to perform this work."
