The Culinary School program works closely with local food service establishments to provide employment for program graduates. The Culinary School thrives with the involvement of the community.
There are many social and practical reasons to hire a Culinary School Graduate.
- There is no recruiting or advertising cost to find a new kitchen employee
- Expedited hiring process
- It is the socially responsible thing to do
- Tax credit incentives
- Various skill levels from dishwashers to line cooks
Culinary graduates are pre-screened, highly skilled employees with local professional references. With your help, many of culinary graduates are employed within 90 days of finishing the program.
Many graduates have completed food safety training and have received ServSafe certification, a basic credential required by many restaurants.
