In the Certificate I, the student spends 3 months at the college undertaking introductory studies in baking. The college will then place the student in a Perth bakery so they can gain 3 months of extensive hands-on bakery experience.
In the Certificate III, the student is trained in preparing a wide range of bakery products including baking bread, sponges, cakes, cookies, pastries, fillings and tortes. The theoretical and practical training is undertaken in the bakery and training restaurant located on campus.
Work Experience, Activities & Events
The TAFE college has its own bakery and also works very closely with the bakery franchises in Perth. Much of the theoretical and practical training is undertaken on campus however the students are also given the opportunity to undertaken work experience in a Perth bakery. Because of the huge shortage of bakers in Perth this work experience often leads on to paid part-time work for the student. The hospitality industry in Perth is booming at the moment and there is plenty of work available in this area for well trained and motivated students.
