The Cutting Edge
If you’ve been through our standard Culinary Arts program and you’re ready for a more intense experience, then sign up for our Advanced Culinary Arts Career Studies Certificate.
You will learn from Chef Hatley Bright, who will emphasize the skills and work habits that you will need in order to succeed in the culinary field. This includes: how to keep a professional kitchen clean and sanitary; how to cut and prepare fruit and vegetables; and basic baking, cooking, and food service skills.
Ingredients…
The Advanced Culinary Arts program runs over two semesters, and usually takes a student a year to complete. Upon completion, you will have earned 28 credits toward your certificate.
One item to note: You can earn our Advanced Culinary Arts certificate for less than one-fourth the cost per credit that you would pay in most for-profit culinary programs. Chew on that!
