Culinary Arts and Catering, AAS
The Culinary Arts and Catering program offers students foundational skills for entry into the culinary industry. This program provides comprehensive instruction in cooking, baking, and essential theoretical knowledge, preparing graduates for a range of roles within food service.

I received world-class training here at FVCC and my second year was covered by scholarships. I’m excited to take the next step.

It’s our job to help the students find their dream and find their future- whether is a line cook, a chef, catering or front of house. We emphasize technical skill as well as the business competencies so that students not only know how to “do” the work they understand the business implications and how to be successful in many areas of our industry.
