(1) The 'employability of chefs and cooks' has been determined by the State Training Board's Responsive Trade Training Working Group as industry's acceptance of the alternative training delivery method being piloted. There is industry support for the proposed pilot.
(2) The proposed pilot for food trades is aimed at participants achieving the Certificate III in Hospitality (Commercial Cookery) which has an occupational outcome of 'Chef'.
Participants will have the option of exiting the program after six months with the training outcome of Certificate II in Hospitality (Kitchen Operations). This qualification can result in a person being employed in a kitchen, either as a cook or kitchen assistant.
It is anticipated that pilot participants will be monitored throughout the program and a final evaluation will be undertaken at the end of the pilot to determine what employment outcomes were achieved.
