Overview

Meat cutting is a unique, specialized and highly in-demand trade that offers plenty of job opportunities upon graduating. Jobs include retail or wholesale butchers, industrial butchers and meat cutters, poultry preparers, ham cutters, meat trimmers and more! This one-year Ontario College Certificate program is located at Fanshawe College’s London Downtown Campus in a state-of-the-art facility using the latest equipment. Students will build skills in meat processing, product packaging, professional safety standards and customer service, taught by faculty with years of experience in the art of butchery. More than half of class time is spent in hands-on learning labs, and students will apply what they learn by operating a full-service retail meat outlet on campus. Upon graduation, students may choose to transition into the Retail Meat Cutter 245R Apprenticeship, or to earn dual certificates by transitioning into the Culinary Skills program.
