NEWS North Canterbury News, August 11, 2022 Abaking career sure to rise for baker Sue 23 By ROBYN BRISTOW Sue Brocherie was humbled when her name was put forward to do abakery apprenticeship. The bubbly Artisan by Rangiora Bakery production supervisory baker, who is in her late 40s, was inwardly petrified, but grabbed the opportunity. Sue has gone on to prove age is no barrier to learning and upskilling. ‘‘It’s never too late. For those of us who have done avariety of things in our lives and have lots of life experience, but don't have any formal qualifications, this is an opportunity to get that qualification, have that feeling of accomplishment, fulfillment, and achievement. ‘‘You're never too old to learn,’’ Sue says. While doing an apprenticeship seemed the logical next step in her career, Sue says it was scary as she had not done any study for 30 years. ‘‘But Ithought as Iwas baking for aliving, why not become qualified?’’ The prospect of all the papers she had to complete was daunting, but once she started, it wasn't too bad. Surrounded by experience in the bakery where she has worked for the past 14 years, and making the most of the learning and reference material supplied as part of her apprenticeship, along with Google, Sue completed her three year cake baking qualification in 2021. Now she is half way through her 18month pastry strand qualification. Sue is abig fan of the earn and learn model that comes with being an apprentice. ‘‘Earning while you learn for mature students is definitely the way to go. You can't beat on the job training. ‘‘A lot of people learn by doing, and this is the perfect way to do that.’’ Sue started out making muffins at the Rangiora Bakery. ‘‘As the bakery has evolved, so has my role,’’ says Sue, who is now the production supervisor of the cake, slice, bread and meat pie areas. She has always loved baking —acraft she inherited from her mother. She remembers fondly as achild mixing up bowls of flour, sugar, water and sultanas in her playhouse and her mother baking creations in the kitchen. ‘‘Baking has always been more than just achore. Ilove doing it. ‘‘At home, 99% of my baking is given away —it’s my happy place. It is also something Iam good at and since doing my apprenticeship, I'm challenging myself with things Iwould never have tried making previously.’’ Competenz account managers have played akey role in Sue’s learning journey, with regular visits throughout the year and popping in to see her while she’s been on ablock course. ‘‘At each visit you receive Next step ... Apprentice baker Sue Brocherie, who is in her late 40s, has completed her three year cake baking qualification and is now halfway through her 18month pastry strand qualification. PHOTO: JOHN COSGROVE your progress report and to be above the line always gives me asecret thrill,’’ Sue says. ‘‘The enthusiasm and encouragement from Competenz is above and beyond. Rangiora Bakery has also been incredibly supportive and the progress and success of their apprentices is always appreciated and celebrated. ‘‘The wealth of knowledge of management and senior staff is soaked up by all of us,’’ she says. Rangiora Bakery has four female and two male apprentices, and Sue urges all mature people who might be considering anew career ‘‘to just do it’’. Sue’s employer, Rangiora Bakery General Manager Frank Janssen, says the Government’s Apprenticeship Boost scheme has allowed the business to take on new talent by subsidising the training fees. Following the 2022 budget, the scheme was extended until the end of December 2023. ‘‘There are no problems to get apprentices. We have awaiting list among our staff which is really cool. They are very keen to learn. ‘‘We normallyallow staff that have been herefor acouple of yearsand are serious to sign up.’’ Mr Janssen is very supportive of Sue’straining. ‘‘Sueisdoing great. She had worked here already for 10 plus years as asupervisor before she started her apprenticeship. ‘‘Shehas alot of responsibilities, and the baking knowledgethat she gets from her training helpsher to do her job evenbetter.’’
