To address the skills shortage of Cooks in the Huntsville area, this program is geared to prepare up to 18 participants to gain their Level 1 Cooks training that will qualify them to move into an apprenticeship as a Cook, Assistant Cook, Chef, or Institutional Cook.<\/p>\n<p>The program is being offered free to selected participants and runs February 29 &#8211; September 23, 2016.  This 30 week program includes several phases including 4 weeks of academic upgrading to prepare the participants for the academic training portion of the program, 2 weeks of workplace skills training, 12 weeks of academic training (Level 1 Cook Apprenticeship training), and 12 weeks of paid on the job work experience in both an hospitality and institutional environment.  All training will be delivered in the Huntsville area.<\/p>\n<p>This program is for individuals who are out of school, unemployed (or working less than 20 hours a week) and interested in a career in culinary arts.  Please contact Heather at the YMCA Employment and Learning Services for more information at 705-787-0349, heather_dix@ymca.ca or at 60 King William St.<\/p>\n<p>If you are an employer and are interested in learning more about this program for the purpose of providing a placement for a participant we would love to hear from you.<\/p>\n<p>This <em>Employment Ontario <\/em>project is funded in part by the Government of Canada.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><broadstreet-zone zone-id=\"45657\" keywords=\"\" soft-keywords=\"true\" zone-alias=\"\"><\/broadstreet-zone>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is with great pleasure and excitement that the YMCA of Simcoe Muskoka is announcing the launch of the Culinary Arts Pre-Apprenticeship Program in Huntsville!
