About the course

This level will suit you if you are already in full-time employment, progressing from a Level 1 qualification, or in a position to start Level 2. To gain an NVQ, you need to show you’ve got a particular set of skills. You will work with your training provider to review your current skills and find the best way to gain new ones. The NVQ qualifications are assessed in a simulated professional kitchen. For each unit your assessor watches and asks questions as you perform a task or looks at a portfolio of work that you’ve built as formal evidence of your learning. Then they confirm you’ve got the skills to do the job well.
