This is a 5-day training program with each day building on the next. You will be working in teams of 3-4 people and your team members will be depending on your active participation. If you cannot attend all 5 days please email Rebecca Coste at coste@culinarynutritionassociates.com.

The class starts at 8 am each day and will finish by 3pm. There will be a continental breakfast each day starting at 7:45 am.

For lunch each day, we will be enjoying the foods prepared in the kitchen lab on that day.

You will be working in the kitchen every day. Please dress appropriately. Closed-toe, non-skid shoes are essential and no sandals are permitted. Wear your kitchen uniform, minimize jewelry, bring an apron and appropriate hair restraint.

We have a great team of trainers and an exciting curriculum planned. Expect to hone your knife skills, learn some culinary shortcuts and try some new foods and menu ideas. Each participant will receive a high-quality chef’s knife and pocket knife sharpener. We will also be raffling off a commercial salad spinner each week.
