Foundation Programme

 

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.

In order to obtain the foundation programme certificate you need qualifications in Danish corresponding to the Danish Lower Secondary School level, "Level F". During the 35-week foundation programme you will be given the opportunity to attend lessons in Danish that will improve your language skills. However, depending on your skills in Danish, you may need to prolong the 35-week programme in order to obtain "Level F" in Danish.

The programme takes place at Niels Hemmingsens Gade 24.

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.)
