Fish Friers

Welcome to the NFFF Training Academy

Fish Friers

Due to Covid 19, the NFFF is running limited training schedule. For training enquiries please email training@nfff.co.uk

The NFFF Training Academy was established in 1976 in an effort to help raise, develop and progress the standards within the fish and chip industry. In that time we’ve welcomed thousands of students through our doors learning the theory and practical skills required to start up and run a successful fish and chip shop. As a federation we feel fish and chip training plays crucial role in running a successfull business.  Some of our key trainers today were NFFF students themselves once, who have since gone on to run successful award winning fish and chip businesses.

A practical guide to fish frying - 1 day course

This course is designed for those with some previous catering experience but no practical knowledge of fish frying. The syllabus will cover the practical elements of the business. Held at our fully equipped Training Academy in Leeds, this is the perfect course to introduce you/your staff to the best techniques of the fish frying process. You will also get the latest industry information and increase your industry awareness.

One Day Course 

In Shop Training

Bespoke training tailored to your requirements. An NFFF approved trainer will conduct six hours of training at your fish and chip business, at a date and time that is convenient to you. Adopting this approach means that the trainees can be taught in an environment that they are used to working in, with machinery and equipment that they feel comfortable with. Another benefit of a fish and chip shop undertaking in shop training is that they can request for the approved trainer to focus on specific areas within their business.
