Culinary Challenge
CULINARY CHALLENGE – Learners will observed in a controlled environment whilst they prepare each dish from a 3 course menu they have designed.
Learners will be required to design a 3 course menu in line with the organisation’s standards, current industry trends and costings. Each dish will be required to cover a range of food groups. The apprentice must demonstrate effective research, planning and costing of their menu and prepare, cook and serve the dishes selected by the Assessor to a good standard within the designated time. To receive a pass the apprentice must demonstrate competence in achieving tasks on time and to standard. To receive a distinction the apprentice must demonstrate efficient, coordinated working to exceed timescales, standards or ways of working.
On Demand Test.
ON DEMAND TEST – 2 hour on demand multiple choice test, including 30 minutes reading time. Includes scenario based questions and is either undertaken on the employer’s premises or off-site.
There are scenario based questions and all questions will cover the knowledge and skills developed throughout the apprenticeship. Some will require the apprentice to consider a course of action or solution to a problem based on a ‘real-life’ workplace activitiy. To pass the learner will need to achieve 70%, and to receive a distinction they must achieve 85% or higher.
Practical Observation.
PRACTICAL OBSERVATION – 4 hour observation of the apprentice in the working environment. Time may be split to cover preparation and service, and the apprentice will showcase working in an operational kitchen environment to produce food to standard.
The apprentice should have the opportunity to demonstrate competence in preparation, cooking and service of dishes and must include customer interaction. It is encouraged to conduct the observation at a time that reflects typical working traditions and avoids seasonal periods of low levels of trading. The assessor will determine when to carry out the observation based on a 2 week working schedule of the apprentice, in conjunction with the employer.
To receive a pass the apprentice must demonstrate competence in achieving tasks on time and to standard. To receive a distinction the apprentice must demonstrate efficient, coordinated working to exceed timescales, standards or ways of working.
Professional Discussion.
PROFESSIONAL DISCUSSION – 90 minute structured discussion in a controlled environment between the apprentice and Assessor, including a 30 minute review of the log of dishes and costings for culinary challenge.
The employer can present to support, but cannot lead the conversation, to confirm the apprentice’s information and provide examples.
Questions will be asked in relation to the period of learning, development and continuous assessment, coverage of the standard and personal development and reflection. The apprentice will be informed of the requirements at least 5 days in advance and may bring additional materials to demonstrate their competence.
