- The practice of pastry techniques at service providers is aimed at improving learners’ knowledge and learners may apply knowledge and skills to be taught at training institutions to the real occupational context.

- Contents of the said practice of pastry techniques include those that learners have been taught at vocational training institutions (this varies depending on different practice assignments) with particular attention paid to those applicable to the real work duties.

- Activities of the said practice shall be classified into three groups as follows:

+ Learners perform vocational practice assignments at confectionery establishments, restaurants, hotels, or tourist resorts, etc. that have jobs related to their training vocation. In such case, learners need instructions by teachers or instructors (who may be experienced or qualified ones working at the said locations of practice);

+ Learners practice pastry techniques (with instructions by teachers) at rooms/ workshops of training institutions or other establishments in association with training institutions;

+ Learners may opt for combination of two said forms.

- With respect to selection of form and distribution of time of the practice, each vocational training institution shall, based on their specific conditions, decide either the professional practice at service providers or grouping of learners for separate practice assignments, but must ensure consistence with duration, objectives and contents mentioned above./.
