The purpose of the Entry-Level Culinary Arts program is to stimulate learning, growth and transformation. Our goal is to instruct students who are committed to a career in culinary arts and to help them achieve their potential through small class sizes and individualized instruction from a professional faculty and staff. Students will acquire the foundational knowledge and skills of cooking and/or baking, sensory awareness and teamwork needed to work with competence and professionalism in a commercial kitchen or in a related culinary field.
The hands-on learning and in-depth knowledge you will receive from the Entry-Level Culinary Arts program will raise the bar on your career possibilities. You can walk away with so many new skills - with so much more insight on culinary concepts, techniques, ingredients, and cuisines – you will wonder how you ever did without them. You will work in the Arc Culinary teaching kitchen with people who are serious and passionate about culinary arts and who share your commitment to personal and professional development. And you can do it all in approximately sixteen (16) weeks, so you can quickly put your education to work.
