Common Questions
Yes. As there are components of this program that must be completed utilising restaurant services, it is a CQUniversity requirement that the student must be employed within the restaurant/food service industry to enable completion of the required restaurant/kitchen service coordination requirements as part of the practical learning.
It is preferable that the student already holds a trade qualification (Certificate III in Commercial Cookery) prior to commencement. If not, upon commencement the student will need to complete the Certificate III component of the course (25 units) prior to undertaking the remaining eight units within the Certificate IV.

Honestly I was lost when I first started looking at Australian colleges. There are just too many options and every agent gives you different info. A friend told me about FindTheCourses and within a week I had shortlisted 3 programs that actually matched my budget and visa situation. My advisor Sanjay was super helpful — never felt like I was being pushed into anything.
