CAREER DISCOVERY: AN INTRODUCTION TO PROFESSIONAL BAKING AND PASTRY

So, you're considering enrolling in the 30-week Baking and Pastry Certificate Program, but you're not sure that you're ready to commit? Our five-day adult Career Discovery is just what you need to help you decide. This hands-on glimpse into the program will take you into our professional bakeshops to learn the fundamentals of baking and pastry, from studying ingredients, equipment, and techniques to preparing classic and contemporary baked goods and pastries.

A Typical Day
Each class session begins with your Chef Instructor detailing techniques and vocabulary that you'll use in the bakeshop that day. You and your classmates will work together in teams to produce a variety of recipes and items each day, using the same equipment that professionals use, and facing the same issues that chefs face every day concerning flavor, techniques, and ingredients. Your instructor is readily at hand to give a demonstration or assist with an especially tricky element of a recipe. At the end of class, you'll enjoy the fruits of your labor in a community meal shared with your classmates.

Don't Delay, Apply Today!
Each class is limited to 18 participants, so apply online today! For more information, call the Continuing Education Department at 800-888-7850.
