Colin | Studied Cookery and Hospitality
Hi, I am Colin, I’m from Malaysia and I study Cookery and Hospitality at QAT. My dream is to work in a reputable kitchen with knowledgeable staff in order to up-skill my Kitchen Career Path, especially in Patisseries which I am most passionate about.
Since the beginning of my studies, I have gained a lot of knowledge towards my dream career. I received invaluable knowledge from QAT, such as some real life workplace experiences from skilful trainers. They showed their best efforts to teach me all the skills they have learnt. I have to thank and appreciate the help from QAT since the beginning and til the end of my studies. At QAT, I once requested to my trainers that I wanted to learn something more about pastries and they did not hesitate to help me and provide me with an opportunity to work as a pastry apprentice at the Sofitel Hotel.
After an exciting long journey with QAT and the work opportunity they provided me, I have finally received a job offer to work as a Commis Pastry Chef at the Sofitel in Brisbane Central. I am so grateful to work with this company, and I know that it would not have happened if I did not meet my respectful trainers (Mr Ken and Mr Vincent) and with QAT’s help.
I have now applied for a Graduate Visa and will apply for my Permanent Residence in the future.
Thank you QAT, I truly appreciated all of your help.
Emma | Advanced Diploma in Hospitality
I am studying Advanced Diploma in Hospitality in the QAT. I really like the teachers and facilities here. In regards to the teachers, I learned a lot, not just from textbooks but also from their experiences. Some of the lessons I have learnt are to do with Marketing and Business planning. When the teacher Carmel was describing her experiences, she was very lively which make it very interesting. The information she shared was very important to me, as I wish to open my own store in the future.
Angela Milena Velandia Martin | Certificate IV in Commercial Cookery
I chose Cert IV in the kitchen, because I studied a technical degree in Cooking in Colombia several years ago. However, in Colombia I did not learn enough (due to the few hours I had class), so I thought that in QAT it would be the same, but everything has been totally different and QAT has surpassed my expectations without any doubt. First of all, I am very lucky and I have a great teacher who has a lot of experience and is interested in giving us all her knowledge in a practical and interesting way, which has been incredible because I still do not work in the kitchen, but my interest in learning and Start improving my skills has increased in recent months.
