Welcome to the ACF Apprenticeship Programs

Rouxbe Online Culinary School is honored to partner with The American Culinary Federation to support ongoing development and culinary training. The American Culinary Federation (ACF) Apprenticeship structure has three components, all of which help you to satisfy your assigned track. The competencies are completed at your work site and Related Instruction is available here online in a self-paced environment.

Related Instruction is the formal education requirement of an ACF apprenticeship. Apprentices must complete the appropriate 30-hour courses for the chef certification track they have chosen. While we track your progress for Related Instruction within the ACF apprentice portal, the work is done independently on the Rouxbe platform.

The American Culinary Federation Education Foundation (ACFEF) apprenticeship training program has been designed to provide future culinarians entering the workplace with comprehensive training in the practical and theoretical aspects of work required in a highly skilled profession.
