If you are an English speaking
EU-citizen or if you hold a permanent residence permit or a
residence permit in anticipation of permanent stay in Denmark and
wish to start a vocational education within food and beverage, you
can enroll on the foundation programme offered in English.
The foundation programme certificate
enables you to commence a vocational education as a chef, caterer,
"smoerrebroedsjomfru" or waiter/waitress.
The programme includes cooking
classes, waiting, nutrition, culinary culture, hygiene, science,
environment, Danish and IT. The practical training will take place
in our college´s own restaurant and kitchen and in restaurants in
Copenhagen.
The programme is given on a full-time
basis with approx. 30 lessons per week. Full attendance is
required, and all modules must be completed in order to obtain the
foundation programme certificate.
All classes are taught in English,
and it is therefore of utmost importance that you master English on
a high level.
A basic knowledge of the Danish
language will be preferred.
On the Foundation Programme it is
imperative that you learn enough Danish during the 30-40 weeks so
that you can understand, speak read and, to some extend, write
Danish when you finish the programme. Besides the Danish
lessons you will follow at the college you will be expected to
follow Danish lessons in you spare time.
Your Danish abilities (especially
comprehension and oral skills) will be assessed before you will be
allowed to take the final exam/project which will lead to the
foundation course certificate.
The completed application form must
be enclosed with a brief letter of motivation in English as well as
your CV and relevant documentation (diplomas, references, etc.)
