How many levels are there for chefs? Which level is the best?

The level of the chef is divided into 5 levels, namely primary, intermediate, senior, technician, senior technician, generally the students who graduated from the chef school should basically be at the intermediate level and have an intermediate level certificate, when working in the chef job for 4 years, you can obtain the senior qualification certificate, and then work more than 7 times to obtain the technician qualification certificate, and then work for more than 10 years to obtain the senior technician qualification certificate, that is to say, you want to change from a junior apprentice to a chef with a senior technician qualification certificate, It is possible to study and work for at least 20 hours to obtain a senior qualification certificate, if your technical level is not too strong, and the scope of learning is relatively narrow, then you basically have no senior technician qualification certificate, so if you want to become a member of the senior technician, you must not only work long enough, but also continue to learn cooking techniques and master the relevant dishes in your work to complete your promotion path, from this point of view, it is also quite difficult to get ahead in the chef world.

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