Baker / Patissier Apprentice Program at George Brown College

FULL DESCRIPTION

Apprenticeship training is an agreement between a person wishing to learn a skill and an employer who can provide the environment for skills training. Administered by the Apprenticeship Client Services Branch of the Ontario Ministry of Colleges and Universities (MCU), an apprenticeship is the best way to continue your journey on a promising career path. Upon completion, apprentices return to industry more confident and with an updated skill set that prepares them for greater job opportunities.

If you already have practical experience as a baker or patissier, you can:

• Build upon your work experience.
• Experience hands-on training.
• Learn the related theory in an innovative program that fits your work schedule.
• Get the qualifications you need without taking a long-term absence from your job.

Baker/patissier apprentices learn a skilled occupation by combining in-school courses with paid on-the-job training.
