Chef's grades are divided into five levels, namely, junior, intermediate, advanced, technician and senior technician. Generally, students who graduate from chef school should basically be at the intermediate level and have an intermediate grade certificate. When they work in the chef's job for 4 years, they can obtain an advanced qualification certificate. After working for more than 7 years, they can obtain a technician qualification certificate. After working for more than 10 years, they can obtain a senior technician qualification certificate. That is to say, if you want to change from a junior apprentice to a chef with senior technician qualification certificate, you need to study and work for at least 20 years before you can get the senior qualification certificate. If your technical level is not too hard and the scope of study is relatively narrow, you will basically miss the senior technician qualification certificate. Therefore, if you want to become a senior technician, you must not only work long enough, but also constantly learn cooking techniques and master relevant dishes at work before you can complete your promotion.

If you have a senior technician certificate, then you have the qualifications to publish a book, be a food judge, start a chef school, and set up a self-supporting school, because you have your own world in the field of cooking!

So do you know why the chef's hat is high and low? This is also the classification of chefs in a big hotel. Generally, the higher the hat, the higher the chef's level. The hat of a junior apprentice is about 15 cm, the hat of an intermediate chef is about 25 cm, the hat of a senior chef (chef) is about 30 cm, and the hat of an executive chef or honorary chef is about 35 cm, so you will know that he must be a superb chef when you see the hat above.
