Catering Apprenticeships

The hospitality and catering sector employs over 3.2 million people in the UK, making it one of the largest employers in the country.

Essential to a wide range of establishments, including restaurants, cafes, hotels, and pubs, while also covering contract and event catering, completing a catering course allows you to work across a wide spectrum of arenas, including leisure, business, travel, and events.

With a diverse workforce, the catering industry provides employment opportunities to people of different ages, backgrounds, and skill levels, making it an extremely innovative and creative sector.

By completing an apprenticeship, you can gain hands-on experience in real-world hospitality and catering settings, allowing you to apply your knowledge and skills in a practical context. A catering course will also provide comprehensive training and education in the specific skills and knowledge needed for the industry, including food preparation and handling, customer service, event planning, and health and safety regulations.
