== School of Culinary Arts ==
=== About the School of Culinary Arts ===
Delivering high quality commercial cookery and patisserie certificate courses in Perth, Western Australia. ASCA is the only private training provider to deliver training to Australian Chef Apprentices.

The Australian School of Culinary Arts (ASCA)is a school solely devoted to the teaching of Culinary Arts and to developing aspiring young chefs.

Our Perth school is closer to the city centre. Our students are closer to the energy of the kitchens in the big hotels. Our focus on practical training takes you closer to the real world experience you need to achieve the transition from being a student to becoming a qualified Chef or Chef Patissier.

Our Culinary Arts programs include the Australian Commercial Cookery and Patisserie courses, both focused on teaching the skills and knowledge of preparing and presenting food to the highest possible standards that lead our students to graduation and ultimately their future careers as professional chefs.

Students will be taught practical cooking skills and excellent overall product knowledge. Topics include food preparation and presentation techniques with a variety of ingredients. The course includes a high level of practical training so you get first hand work experience as a chef.

===== 6 Months Full Time - Pre Apprenticeship Opportunities =====
Students are employed in a commercial kitchen to gain the required real experiences. Successful graduates have the skills and knowledge to be employed as cooks, non-trades people or apprentices.

Australian citizens or Permanent Residents who complete the course successfully are guaranteed placement into a Chef Apprenticeship. Successful completion of this course will enable a term reduction when you start your apprenticeship.

===== Chef or Patissier Chef Apprenticeship =====

Available to permanent Australian residents, apprenticeships are undertaken while you are employed and getting on-the-job training to support the high quality off-the-job training we provide at ASCA. You and your employer sign training agreements with a selected Australian Apprentice Centre to be indentured into your chosen apprenticeship.

Employed apprentice chefs/patissiers must nominate to complete the required off-the-job training with ASCA while they continue workplace training.

Another popular option is to complete a Pre-Apprenticeship - the Certificate II in Hospitality (Kitchen Operations) - before starting your apprenticeship. This is popular because it allows you to start the employment you prefer and complete your apprenticeship with the employer of your choice.

You will also be able to apply for a half year term reduction when you finish your apprenticeship.
