The Accelerated Training System at Kitchen Academy was carefully developed based upon the skills that are in demand in today's professional kitchens. These core techniques are the foundation for the program, and they are continually reinforced as the student moves from the basic to most advanced stages of cooking. Students start cooking from day one, with access to fine ingredients and equipment, as well as experienced instructors. In as few as 30 weeks, having earned 40 credits and a Professional Culinary Arts Diploma, students should graduate with the confidence and skills they need to start a career in culinary arts.
