Culinary Skills

Qualifications

• City and Guilds Level 2 Diploma in Culinary Skills
• Certificate of Apprenticeship

Course duration/location

The recommended time for completion of this course is one year. You will attend College at Coutanchez Campus for one day a week for off-the-job training.

Apprenticeships are available to all.

Candidates will be assessed for suitability using a range of diagnostic tests.

If you have not achieved maths or English at D/3/Level 1, you will study these subjects to support progression and achievement of your chosen apprenticeship. Failure to complete maths and English will prevent progression between apprenticeship levels or achieving your overall apprenticeship.

Mandatory units:

• Prepare and cook stocks, soups and sauces
• Prepare and cook fruit and vegetables
• Prepare and cook meat and offal
• Prepare and cook poultry
• Prepare and cook fish and shellfish
• Prepare and cook rice, pasta, grains and egg dishes
• Produce paste products
• Produce hot and cold desserts and puddings
• Produce fermented dough products

You will be assessed throughout the duration of the apprenticeship through a portfolio of evidence that will include:

• Practical observations
• Short answer question tests
• Written assignments

After successfully completing the Level 2 Culinary Skills apprenticeship, you can continue onto the Level 3 Professional Cookery apprenticeship, where you will further develop the skills required for career progression in the catering and hospitality sector.

The College’s Learner Support Services are available to support and help make a success of your apprenticeship journey.

The College also works in partnership with Careers Guernsey, whose advisors can help you choose the right next step and prepare for apprenticeship job interviews and applications. Visit careers.gg for more information.
