The Hospitality and catering program is part of the overall initiative to help prisoners improve their education and life skills.
The full course is a minimum of six months. It covers basic meal planning, cooking and how to manage a budget - important skills that many of the prisoners at Boronia have never had the opportunity to develop.
Between four and eight women are involved in the program at any time. As many of the women are not at Boronia long enough to complete the full course, it has been designed so they can continue their training and earn a certificate with Hospitality Group Training following release.
