About this course
A commis chef is the most common starting position in many kitchens and in principal the most junior culinary role. A commis chef prepares food and carries out basic cooking tasks under supervision of a more senior chef. The primary objective of the commis is to learn and understand how to carry out the basic functions in every section of the kitchen. Therefore having the opportunity to experience, consider and value each section with a view to choosing an area where they feel most inspired.
The learning journey of any chef will vary considerably from one individual to the next; however it is necessary to understand and have experience in the basics that this role provides in order to progress to any future senior chef positions.
You must be employed to undertake an Apprenticeship (we could help you with this if you don't currently have one). You will need to show a strong commitment to pursuing a career in food preparation and cookery and ideally have literacy and numeracy skills to Level 1 or above. All applicants for Apprenticeship training will be required to attend an interview and assessment.
On successful completion of this Apprenticeship you could progress to Chef de Partie Apprentice Standard
