Finished out the year in april. I can't believe how much I've grown over the course of a year.

Yay congratulations!! Does your program have any sort of externship program?

Well the chefs and the school do have lots of connects throughout the food production industry at some of the best restaurants/resorts around ontario and canada. I found my own job however, working for a summer camp this summer in the kitchen. Should be a blast, I'm off in two weeks.

I did a culinary arts class this year & it taught me a lot new things plus i had fun doing it as well. I'd recommend it to anyone out there thinking of taking culinary arts, even if you're not a chef such as me.

Was in Culinary Arts for all 4 years if high school. It had its ups and downs. I do make some excellent fettuccine alfredo and soup now. I'm in college for Business and Accounting because I decided Culinary wasn't for me. But it was fun and I'm glad I learned how to cook and bake. I just don't want it to be my profession.

I'm starting second year now. Only thing I can think of that describes how I feel the transition between first and second year is:

Semester four, I'm feeling much better about this semester.

I have an accredited certificate in Culinary Arts
HOWEVER...I'm still a fine cook

I make cool parodies, too.

One half semester left for me then I'm off to the workforce.

I've been working in the restaurant business since I was 16. I'm a hospitality management major and work full time in a kitchen. I've yet to work for someone who has a culinary degree that knows their ass from a hole in the ground. Most kids with no experience other then culinary arts school are a huge pain in the ass to work with. Workplace experience will look just as good to most employers. My advice is to work in a kitchen while your working towards a degree that won't involve you becoming an overweight alcoholic without a wife or kids and if your really into it still consider culinary arts school. going to school for that shit for however many years it take without any work experience is like selling your ass in county prison, your gonna cry and most likely everyones going to make fun of you for sucking.

Wow, today is the last day of school. Our class just has to do the final buffet. I'm probably going on forward with a different career but no regrets about taking culinary arts!

Congrats for keeping with it for 2 years!

[Kozzy333]

Thanks a lot. It was definitely the hardest thing I have ever done.
