Pro Combination

The Pro Kitchen is a 3-month program and results in international certification from City & Guilds of London. Our Pro Kitchen program not only offers the benefits of exposure in the Hot Kitchen but also allows for international acknowledgment of that time and experience you gained here under the guidance of our efficient Chef Instructors. The Programme focuses on teaching all the fundamental techniques for cooking and food handling and prepares students to become professional chefs in any restaurant kitchen globally. Students will spend approximately 70% of their time learning culinary techniques (French classical) with the remainder of the program devoted to the application of these acquired skills to world cuisines. The program runs for 3 months and classes are held 5 days a week from Mon – Fri, 9:30 AM to 1:30 PM. All subjects are developed and taught in a practical environment (90% hands-on) where students will be able to learn, understand, create and develop their skills in cooking.
