Internship hosts, industry partners, and accreditation bodies — together shaping the next generation of European chefs.
Every Certified Chef completes a supervised internship in a professional kitchen. Our host restaurants make that possible — mentoring students, validating their progress, and shaping the next generation of European chefs.
Independent and group restaurants across the Nordics and Europe host ECA interns for 160-hour placements.
Hotel kitchens and resort groups provide high-volume, professional environments for supervised training.
Specialised hosts support our Yacht Chef graduates learning galley service at sea.
Beyond internship hosts, ECA works with a network of brands, suppliers, and employers who help keep our training relevant and our graduates employed.
Kitchen equipment brands and ingredient suppliers support our training kitchens and student discounts.
Restaurants and groups post roles to the ECA international chef job board, connecting graduates directly with employers.
Partners offer students and alumni ongoing discounts on tools, ingredients, and professional development.
Nutrition-science and wellness partners collaborate on our Certified Longevity Chef specialization.
