      Employment opportunities for Culinary Arts graduates are excellent, and students have consistently found employment in the hospitality industry in Manitoba and in other provinces and countries.

      Co-operative education placements have played an important role in the success our graduates have experienced in the culinary field. Many of our students return to their former co-op employers on a full-time basis after graduation. A growing number of our co-op employers are graduates of our programs.

      Graduates from the program have earned positions including Commis, Chef de partie, Saucier, junior Sous chef, Chefs, and Executive Chef. Other grads have gone on to be restaurant owner/operators.

      This program has been recognized by the Canadian Forces. Visit http://www.forces.gc.ca/en/education-training.page for recognition information.
