“We have been using BITA for our apprentices for the past 6 years, during this time we have seen a dramatic improvement in the quality and consistency of training. The biggest thing we appreciate with BITA is their consideration for both the apprentices and the businesses in which they operate. Our business is located 3 hours from their facility, yet we still have consistent visits from the trainers. We cannot recommend BITA and the NBIA highly enough for everything they do, not only for the apprentices, but also the businesses that employ them and the baking industry as a whole.”

“The reason that you are so successful with your apprentices is because you are more than willing to learn how each individual person is and how they learn. I will appreciate and always remember how much you helped me in learning and being confident in myself

Samantha Tranter | Sweet and Flour Bakery | Nambour QLD

“Participating in on-the-job bakery training with BITA has been an incredible experience for me. Unlike traditional classroom learning, we have been able to dive into the real-world environment of a bakery and visually learn the complexities of the fundamentals of baking. BITA have been so supportive and have encouraged creativity and individuality within their training. Their training is structured, yet flexible enough to allow apprentices to grow at their own pace, refine their skills and think outside the box. The mentorship we have received from Rod has been an invaluable learning experience and we feel more prepared and confident than ever to take on our bakery and support other apprentices coming through the network.
