Bakery

The bakery industry is crying out for more graduates to fill the ever growing positions available. The signs are everywhere, “Baker Required”.

Although technology has dramatically changed the bakery industry in regards to mass production, the fundamental skills required to become a baker remain a traditional art. From dough preparation for multiple bread types, rolls, muffins, pies, sweet and savoury scones, through to biscuits and cakes, buns and more, this exciting and creative industry is waiting for new students to join.

There are many work experience opportunities available throughout Australia, at special events and within Industry Placement. On campus in the Institutes training facilities, you can receive hands on training in our very own, Bluebells Bakery.
