An Apprenticeship is a perfect choice if you want to continue your studies and develop your skills, knowledge and behaviours in a specific industry, while also earning a salary in full-time employment; kickstarting your long-term career path.

This course is for those who are employed or wish to be employed as a Production Chef and would like to gain a qualification as a professional chef.

Production Chefs work as part of a team in time-bound and often challenging kitchen environments, for example; schools, hospitals, the Armed Forces, care homes and high street casual dining or pub kitchens. They report to the Senior Production Chef or appropriate line manager.

  • Follow, complete and maintain production schedules, legislative and quality standard documentation

  • Use specialist kitchen equipment

You will be assessed against the Apprenticeship Standard using three complementary assessment methods; an on-demand test, a practical observation and a professional discussion. Assessment methods may take place in any order and all assessment methods are equally weighted.

On completion of this course you will receive a nationally recognised Apprenticeship Standard qualification as a Level 2 Production Chef. This Apprenticeship is expected to take 12-18 months to complete.
