About Masterclass

The Brick Masterclass is a new industry initiative by Think Brick Australia.

It has been designed to help develop leadership and craft skills in young bricklayers who’ve shown the potential to help our industry meet the current and future demand for excellence in building and construction.

Some of Australia’s best young qualified bricklayers were invited to attend the 5-day intensive live-in course that was designed to hone their practical skills and increase their leadership and management skills.

Participants learn’t about leadership, team management and personal development as well as practical skills including craft and design.
