The French Culinary Institute prepares students for
exhilarating careers in the culinary arts using their Total
ImmersionSM training system that emphasizes technique
training in small, intense hands-on classes. Students can be
on their way to a new career in just six months (or nine, if
one trains at night), and gain lots of real-world practice
cooking at the French Culinary Institute's on-site
restaurant, L'Ecole. In addition to career programs, the
French Culinary Institute offers amateur cooking classes and
continuing education courses in food writing, wine, and
restauranteuring.
