Sunriver Resort has partnered with The American Culinary Federation Education Foundation (ACFEF) to offer an exciting apprenticeship training opportunity for those aspiring to become certified Sous Chefs. This collaboration brings forward a comprehensive four-year educational program designed to equip future culinary professionals with both practical skills and theoretical knowledge essential for excelling in a demanding culinary environment.

The apprenticeship program is structured into three core stages: The Fundamentals Cook phase involves 1,000 hours of hands-on learning to establish foundational culinary skills; the Culinarian program, which is competency-based, includes 2,000 hours of on-the-job experience; and the Sous Chef program, a hybrid format, requires between 4,000 to 6,000 hours of on-the-job training. Participants will develop proficiency in a variety of kitchen processes including food preparation, production accuracy, sanitation, portion control, and maintaining quality standards under fast-paced, pressure-intensive conditions.
This role requires a professional attitude and a passion for food as candidates will assist in daily food production across multiple dining outlets including restaurants, banquets, and room service. Responsibilities include maintaining prep lists, ensuring proper labeling and dating of products to safeguard food safety, applying essential knife skills, and producing recipes consistently and efficiently. The ideal candidate will thrive in a fast-paced environment, have the ability to detect emergency situations, and consistently adhere to health and safety guidelines as mandated by HACCP standards.
