Diploma Chefs Apprenticeship

Course summary
About the Chefs Apprenticeship

The apprenticeship is designed to help you to develop your skills as a chef, while enabling you to gain a range of qualifications. It aims to open opportunities for you within the hospitality and catering industry by partaking in a partnership between an employer and the University, giving you an excellent opportunity to learn within the industry whilst being supported to gain the necessary qualifications to enable you to progress.
As part of the apprenticeship, you will need to attend the University each week, where you will spend your time in a training kitchen completing practical work and assessments. You will also undertake some classroom studies, completing the work necessary for the theoretical and key skill elements of the course.

Chef tutors will regularly visit you at your workplace, to monitor and plan your progress. Some practical assessments will also take place in your workplace. Our apprenticeship scheme is run in conjunction with The Royal Academy of Culinary Arts. Our apprentices are normally employed in prestigious establishments operated by The Royal Academy of Culinary Arts members, such as The Ritz, the Dorchester, the Hilton and the Royal Automobile Club.
