Certificate
Become the go-to butcher in your community and gain a nation-wide recognised trade. You'll learn the skills to thrive in any business, like processing sales, customer service and workplace communications. Then, you'll focus on skills specialised to retail meat enterprises such as meat nutrition, preparing primal cuts and packaging small-goods. Then, the choice is yours whether you show off your skills at a butcher shop, supermarket delicatessen or a specialist meat product retailer.
The meat retailing industry provides career opportunities in traditional meat retail outlets such as butcher shops, supermarkets, and emerging specialist meat product outlets. The Certificate III in Meat Processing (Retail Butcher) is a program designed to provide you with the necessary skills for work in a retail meat environment. This includes training in processing beef, lamb, pork, veal and chicken into customer ready cuts for consumption, as well as training in the manufacture of value-added and smallgoods products. The program has a strong focus on food hygiene, OH&S, customers services and personal development.
