In stage 5 you will start with your traineeship.

The traineeship is an important part of your course to become a professional chef. You will have to find a restaurant where you can work as a student chef. You can choose whichever European kitchen you want.

A traineeship is a (mostly) unpaid job where the main goal is to learn. You are there to gain practical experience. For a chef, the traineeship is one of the most important parts of the learning process. As a cook you learn mainly by doing it yourself. That is why it is an important part of the Professional European Chef training.
