Colorado's International Culinary Institute is receiving many new students - some are looking for a new career in these challenging economic times, some are straight out of school, and some have found that employers are offering fewer positions and are demanding qualifications.
Getting a job in a kitchen isn't as easy as it used to be. As customers are cutting back on costs they will only spend on food and service that is good value, and so chefs and restaurant owners are looking for well-trained, professional employees. As such there has been an increase in enrolment for schools such as the International Culinary Institute.
The Cook Street School of Fine Cooking in Denver is experiencing a similar increase in interest and enrollment as people are looking to add more skills and qualifications to their resumes. With tuition reaching $19,000 for an 18 week course this is not a weekend cookery course.
With entry level jobs in the culinary arts starting at a mere $10 an hour, this course is for those who are serious about getting ahead in the industry by learning the best tricks of the trade and the true skills of culinary arts. Is it for you?
