Culinary Apprenticeships are a type of on-the-job training program that provides aspiring chefs and other culinary professionals with the opportunity to gain real-world experience in a professional kitchen. Rather than attending a traditional culinary school, apprenticeships provide a more hands-on approach to learning the skills and techniques necessary to succeed in the restaurant industry.
