Course programme
The content of the course is such that it covers a broad range of knowledge and practical skills. There is a mandatory unit that culminates in an on-line examination. One optional unit leads to the diploma. Students are encouraged to work towards the diploma which enhances both their skills and knowledge base. This qualification gives greater opportunities with regard to their employability due to a broader range of skills and knowledge acquired by studying the increased number of units required for the diploma. You will consolidate the skills learned in Level 2 and develop these further at a higher level. There are no formal entry requirements, however we would welcome either a Level 2 Food Manufacturing or similar qualification, or relevant industrial experience or position; e.g. practical production and craft experience, or position of technical, new product development, quality assurance/control, bakery and production management. Above all, a determined commitment to succeed and excel, plus the ability to manage time to meet assignment deadlines. Many students go into the world of manufacturing working with key companies such as Nestle, Associated Food, Northern Foods along with some more specific areas of bakery manufacturers such as Cooplands and Betty's. Bakery and Production Management, New Product Development and Technical are all career options, or the learner can go on to Higher Education to study Food related subjects.
