It is the first time the not-for-profit organisation had used a tiny house as a training tool, giving students the experience of building a whole house.

“We can actually get one done within the timeframe of a training program,” Mr McCue said.

“A student can be involved from the ground up, as opposed to maybe getting some work experience for a few weeks with a builder.

Ms Parker said the greatest challenge facing the tiny home movement was council planning regulations.

“Our local laws don’t adequately cover tiny homes as a housing option. They are classified as caravans,” she said.
