OVERVIEW

Apprenticeships allow 16+ year olds to start work and earn a wage, while learning new skills that lead to nationally recognised qualifications. Apprenticeships are designed with the help of employers in the industry, so they offer a structured programme that takes Apprentices through the skills needed to do a job well. Most of an apprentices training takes place on the job but they will also have to complete off-the-job training within the College.

The apprentice national minimum wage applies to all 16 to 18 year old apprentices and to those aged 19 and over in the first year of their apprenticeship. If the apprentice is aged 19 and / or has completed the first year of their apprenticeship, the employer must pay the national minimum wage appropriate for their age.

ENTRY REQUIREMENTS

Employment in a suitable role for the chosen apprenticeship is essential.

If you do not have a grade 9-4 (A* to C) in English and/or maths, you will be required to continue studying these subjects as part of your study programme.

The qualification is assessed through work-based evidence compiled as a portfolio.

It is assessed on practical assignments and observations.

At the end of the programme apprentices will have achieved the Certificate in Hospitality and Catering Principles and Level 3 NVQ Diploma in Professional Cookery.

Apprentices will also complete functional skills that will help develop important skills - like communication, team working, presentation, and problem solving.

On completion of the hospitality and catering apprenticeship at Level 3, apprentices can go on to Level 4 Foundation Degree in Culinary Arts or Hospitality Management.

Apprentices are not liable for fees as these will be covered by your employer.
