Baker Apprenticeship Humber Polytechnic

Program Description

Humber’s Baker Apprenticeship certificate program provides the fundamentals of costing, nutrition, baking, bread making, ingredients and practical applications, cake and cookie production, decoration and design, confectionary techniques, purchasing, and product management. Our program is a balance of theory and practical classes to set you up for a successful career. The apprenticeship component allows you to study and work at the same time – earn while you learn. Humber is home to the Ontario Cook Apprenticeship Training Centre, the largest training centre for cook and baker apprentices in the province. Humber’s apprenticeship curriculum is innovative while following the standards set by the Ministry of Training, Colleges and Universities (MTCU). Note: This program follows professional industry standards for decorum, uniform, hygiene and personal presentation. Practical courses, which take place in a lab, have strict uniform and attendance standards and policies that are mandatory for successful completion of the course. Apprenticeships are not available to international applicants.
