The Red Seal is the interprovincial standard of excellence for your chosen trade. When you have a Red Seal, you can work anywhere in Canada without further testing or certification. It gives you a competitive edge and flexibility in the market.
The Culinary Arts program is an excellent way to work on your Red Seal as a cook. In the program, you’ll earn 1,710 hours and write two block exams—putting you well on your way to certification. After you graduate and are working with a suitable employer, you can register as an apprentice and get credit for the hours earned and block exams passed while you were at Holland College. Then you can complete the journey and take the Red Seal exam.
