This is a CAIBOK competency — not a course, and not a book. It defines what a Sous Chef must be able to demonstrate in Bar and Beverage Management.
It is earned by passing the 4306 certification exam (75%).
It is an elective competency toward the Red Belt. It belongs to the Business pillar of the Red Belt (Sous Chef) in the CAIBOK framework, which assesses the business and operational skill.
The Red Belt is awarded on completing its 6 anchor competencies plus 2 electives.
Earning the Red Belt first requires holding the Green Belt.
An active membership includes this exam — every subject exam of your next belt is included once you hold the belt below. The belt's capstone, the final proctored assessment, is purchased separately when you are ready to sit it.
