It is a requirement for all apprentices that they complete each unit of study within the start and finish dates outlined in your Training Plan. The timetable informs you when each unit will be conducted and its respective assessment dates. You are required to monitor your own progress as you work through the units.
If you experience difficulty with any aspect of your course, it is essential that you discuss this with your lecturer or the Director of Culinary Arts and seek additional support. Opportunities to be re-assessed in any unit in which you have not been deemed competent will be available throughout the year. Failing to complete each unit within the designated time period may mean that you are unable to progress into the next stage of your apprenticeship until all units have been completed and may also result in you having to make an application for extension.
Attendance to ‘off the job’ training is compulsory therefore you are required to attend your assigned class each week. If you are not able to attend you are required not only to contact your employer but also your lecturer before class starts, notifying both of your non-attendance and reason for absence. Each absence will be recorded and your employer will be notified. High absenteeism is likely to place your apprenticeship at risk and will be reported to the Apprenticentre.
