2012 HTN Commercial Cookery Pre-Apprenticeship Program

HTN is running three “Pre-Apprenticeship” courses to launch 15 lucky applicants’ chef careers.

This opportunity is completely free – all training, equipment and fees are paid for.
The courses are short – 3 – 4 weeks including classroom, teaching kitchen time and real on the job experience.

The purpose of this course is to give participants a real advantage in starting a full time commercial cookery apprenticeship after this course (either immediately or soon afterwards).

This program is strictly limited. Applicants should email their resume to recruitment@htn.com.au.

This program is funded by the NSW Government by the NSW Department of Education and Communities.
