Love your kitchen? Chef and Patisserie is now a hot course!


Suka nonton Master Chef? atau Hell's Kitchen? Pernahkah kamu membayangkan gimana caranya supaya kecintaan kamu sama masak dan bikin kue bisa bikin kamu mendapatkan karir yang luar biasa?


Sekarang ini, permintaan akan program pembelajaran terhadap Chef dan Patisserie meningkat dengan pesat di Indonesia. Selain karena populernya acara TV seperti Master Chef Indonesia, tentunya hobi dan perubahan persepsi orang terhadap image chef sebagai karir yang lebih dihargai. Oleh karena itu, mulai banyak institusi di Jakarta yang menawarkan program-program seperti Culinary Art dan Food&Beverage.

Selain itu juga, di luar negeri seperti Malaysia, Singapura dan Australia, program-program yang menawarkan Work Skill Qualification (WSQ) pun mulai lebih mudah dijumpai. Pada dasarnya, program-program tersebut dibuat untuk memberikan murid-murid kualifikasi untuk bekerja di hospitality industry, industri yang saat ini membutuhkan banyak sekali tenaga kerja yang kompeten dikarenakan perkembangannya yang sangat pesat. Program yang ditawarkan di luar negeri pun beragam, mulai dari career based, diploma, sampai undergraduate. Perbedaannya, career based tidak memberikan kamu gelar apa-apa, hanya sertifikat keterampilan. Sedangkan diploma dan undergraduate mengharuskan kamu belajar lebih dalam lagi, dan biasanya menyisipkan management subjects nya juga. Namun ada juga kendala bagi kamu yang muslim nih, karena food and beverage training biasanya mengharuskan kamu untuk mencicipi alkohol, mungkin itu akan jadi bahan pertimbangan kamu nantinya yah.

Nah pertanyaan nya, kalau kamu suka dengan yang nama nya memasak ataupun bikin kue, kenapa ngga belajar Chef atau Patisserie sekarang untuk memperdalam pengetahuan kamu dan mengembangkan kamu untuk bisa menjadi karir yang baik nantinya?

SmartWay is now in Bandar Lampung!

Hi peeps, first of all, this is your admin for Bandar Lampung, Winson K. Toyip
.
I am here to introduce SmartWay education, a brand new consultation service in Bandar Lampung. Founded in 2010, SmartWay is a customer-oriented organisation that will guide you in choosing your studies.


What makes us different?
- Our team members were students who previously had personal experiences in studying overseas. So, we know more about studying overseas and would like to let you know about it.

-We had our experiences as international students, and our past experiences showed that directly consulting with education agencies may not help much and many of you new students may end up not knowing much about what choices you have.

-We can help you and guide you through our consultation time so that you will be able to learn more about subjects, majors, career pathway that are available as well as colleges and universities that you have interest in. Also, we can discuss about our previous student life that may help you settle in the new surroundings.

Introducing: The SmartWay System
Traditionally, students tend to go directly to agencies for information about their studies. In our perspectives, there are a lot of information that agencies are supposed to tell you, such as your alternatives of university, or even your choices of subjects or majors. In reality, we were not given such information when we were international students. Thus, we will now act as the missing link between students and agencies: as consultant.

Traditionally:
Students -----> Agency

SmartWay system:
Students --> SmartWay --> Agency

What are the advantages of SmartWay system?
we are more objectives than agencies because we act as neutral party, while some agencies will advise you by promoting universities that gives higher fees for agents. Make sense, doesn't it?

Our service is free!
We encourage you to arrange free consultation even if you are already using an agency. Study life is supposed to be fun and challenging as well as fulfiling your education needs. We consider this as one of the most important time of our life, so we strongly recommend you to consult with us

Other services:
- information and interview session
- registration for university or college
- career counselling
- ticket and visa application
- homestay and accommodation
- study tour


So, what are you waiting for? Contact us for more information :D
