 The course

The Apprenticeship in Hospitality Scotland is an apprenticeship with a difference. It has been designed by leading hospitality professionals to provide the best programme our industry can offer to young people who want to be the best in that industry.

During the 2 year programme, you will gain skills across various sections of the kitchen. Your units are selected to create a bespoke culinary journey, supported by your chef mentor and City of Glasgow College.

Not only will the apprentices gain valuable experience, they will also work towards their formal hospitality qualification (SCQF Level 5 in Professional Cookery) where they are assessed at each stage of the process. 

The Learning Journeys and Masterclass programme is what sets us apart from any other apprenticeship on offer. We work with our partners and supporters to create bespoke workshops and experiences for our apprentices to build their knowledge and experience cementing their knowledge in each of the departments.  A series of masterclasses throughout the programme provide our apprentices with focused sessions led by experts across a number of topics, and give the apprentices the opportunity to get together as a group and discuss their experience and share knowledge.

Apprentices are paid the national minimum wage so the opportunity is there to earn and learn to become the next generation of managers in hospitality.
