This mid-level class will gain an understanding of front and back of the house roles and how these areas work together to create a successful operation.

Chef Training is perfect for students with a sincere interest in becoming a chef. This class pioneered high-level culinary programming in Texas through our strong, supportive partnership with The Art Institute of Houston. and other area professional chef’s as we learn high level cooking skills.

The Cafe Operations and Catering Practicum will put you in the driver’s seat for running and managing small operations like our campus coffee shop.
