The goal of the three courses is all the same, to give students a stepping stone for the future if they choose to have a career in the culinary industry.

All three avenues of the course provide a direct bridge to further culinary programs offered locally at the College of New Caledonia.

Even students who don’t take the course will benefit from getting a taste of the success sold for $5 daily at the P.G.S.S. cafeteria.
