Since 1 July, interested parties throughout Austria have been able to train as a specialist for vegetarian cuisine. But the prestige project is currently still on the industrial flame. In Upper Austria, for example, there is no company that has registered for training.
A lot was discussed and it worked on it for a long time, and on July 1 she actually started – training as a specialist for vegetarian cuisine. In the three -year internship, the trainees, vegetarian and vegan dishes learn to prepare all species. But possible interested parties (still) look through their fingers in the upper Austria.
Industry skeptical from the beginning
“To be able to train a student, the restaurant owners must report and then complete an official assessment. In Upper Austria there is no company that tried to do it,” says landlord Gerold Royda, who was skeptical from the start. The expert sees the problem in the first place in the fact that only a small number of companies question this training.
Opening hours and food supply as a problem
All positions of the vegan and vegetarian cuisine must be treated for the full training of a student. This mainly includes leafy vegetables, flower vegetables, fruit vegetables, root vegetables, the legumes, the fruit varieties and the bush fruits. “Many companies are therefore excluded because of their food supply. In others, the shorter opening hours are the problem,” explains Royda.
Only three open learning places in Austria
However, the prestige project is not only on the rear burner in the upper Austria. Exactly three open learning places in Austria can be found on the AMS Online Portal. “There is still a lot of work to do.
There is still a spark of hope for interested parties. Because most students start in September, until there can be other training companies.
