Description:

CNA culinary graduates have fed this growing industry with high-quality and accredited professionals for decades. Now, we?re complementing the main course with business related skills to navigate challenges encountered in the culinary world. Professionalism, human resources management, and business management are some examples of skillsets developed to improve success in the kitchen. Because success depends on team work, efficient cost controls, and creativity to maximize the use of food culinary experts are now expected to utilize a broader range of skills. With new and innovative food preparation techniques, cooks are incorporating food science in their kitchens and experimenting with modernist cuisine. With us, you will be exposed to new technologies in cooking equipment that includes automated computerized ovens, blast chillers, immersion circulators, thermal mixers and smart kitchens. This program addresses the increased emphasis on using local and fresh foods and explores trends such as farm-to-fork, international cuisine, sustainable sourcing, artisanal baking, charcuterie and preserving products through traditional processes.



You?ll gain an understanding of local sourcing, including how food is produced, and the challenges associated with obtaining food while promoting conservation and sustainability. This program includes training in food and beverage pairing, advanced baking, sugar work, butchering, catering and event planning, among other vital components of this field. You will also gain knowledge in health-focused areas such as dietary requirements, allergies and intolerances, and effectively demonstrate creative ways to mitigate the impact of these constraints on production.
