Hands-On Culinary Arts Training

At WCI, we provide kitchens that are equipped with industry-current cooking tools and equipment. That means that our students get real-world experience working with equipment that mirrors what they may use in an actual restaurant. This can be valuable experience as they search for jobs, because they can develop the skills and abilities to contribute to today’s kitchens. Additionally, our programs end with an internship, where you’ll take your knowledge and skills into the real world. Our internships allow you to work in an actual restaurant, often under the guidance of an experienced chef to further develop and practice your skills.
