Humber’s Baker Apprenticeship certificate program teaches the fundamentals of costing, nutrition, bread making, ingredients and practical baking applications, cake and cookie production, decoration and design, confectionery techniques, purchasing, and product management. This program is a balance of theory and practical classes to set you up for a successful career. The apprenticeship component allows you to study and work at the same time – earn while you learn.
