This program is designed to help learners connect theoretical principles of baking with practical application. It offers learners the opportunity to become skilled bakers and pastry cooks with in-depth knowledge and skills to troubleshoot errors and manage product outcomes thereby making positive contributions to their employers and their trade. This is a stand-alone program with no options to combine specialties. Students wishing to study both artisan baking and pastry specialties should apply to the 2-year Baking and Pastry Dual Certificates program. International students are not eligible to register in apprenticeship courses at VCC beyond those included in their program.
