my post clearly? Because I already knew where to get those diploma.
Besides shatec, there's also sunrice, bitc etc.
Hello, I think I'll skip ITE. Because my interest is baking &
stuff so shatec (already enquired them) is perhaps more suitable
for me.
Btw, I have to explained that I skipped my O's even though I paid
for them..=/ So yes, it's a waste of time & money. [/b][/b]
You don't need a degree to learn how to cook and bake. Most well
known patisserie chefs don't even need a degree to do that. Does it
matter whether you get a degree or not? Paper chase doesn't extend
to the kitchen - you either know how to cook/bake better than
anyone else, or you don't. No amount of degrees will help you in
that area. It is about doing an apprenticeship than taking some
degree. It is pretty much experience,skill and practical knowledge
unlike a degree which imparts theorectical knowledge.
Frankly , no one is going to care if you are a good chef without a
degree. As long as you can produce high quality dishes. No point
having a degree if you can bake as normally as the people out
there, because it won't save your career.
That is why some hawkers , who have the bare minimum education, can
earn millions just cooking - why? Because they can produce very
tasty food without a degree and their food cannot be rivalled by
homecooking.
Unless you are talking about managing an F&B organisation
without so much as going into the kitchen.
