ISH Chef in Professional Kitchen

PGCM in Bakery & Patisserie Arts

The Postgraduate Certificate in Management (Bakery and Pastry Arts) is a one-year program at École Ducasse India, hosted on the ISH campus in Gurugram. It blends advanced pastry craft with management and entrepreneurship, preparing graduates for leadership across bakeries, patisseries, and food ventures. Over the course of one year, students progress through four trimesters. They train in professional kitchens, work on live assignments, and learn directly from chef-mentors. The curriculum is delivered under the École Ducasse framework and approved by AICTE, combining technical mastery with business depth. The final trimester includes a structured work attachment that connects classroom learning with professional immersion. Graduates leave with the skills to master pastry techniques, manage operations, and build ventures in the fast-growing bakery and patisserie market. They are prepared to step into the food economy with confidence, clarity, and entrepreneurial drive.
