Celebrating National Culinary Arts Month with ProStart
July is National Culinary Arts Month and we’re honoring this occasion by talking about our favorite Culinary Arts program: ProStart!
If you’re not familiar with ProStart, it’s a nationwide, two-year high school program that reaches nearly 150,000 students in more than 1,900 high schools. From culinary techniques to management skills, ProStart’s industry-driven curriculum provides real-life experience opportunities and builds practical skills and a foundation that will last a lifetime.
ProStart students spend two years in the classroom mastering the fundamental management and culinary skills needed for success. ProStart trains students on industry-specific skills that can be used in all aspects of the restaurant and foodservice industry.
Students also leave the program with employability skills – like leadership, accountability, teamwork, and responsibility – that they can take with them to positions in all industries.
At the National Restaurant Association Education Foundation, we believe that education is the key to building future industry leaders. That’s why our educators are dedicated to developing our current workforce and future leaders, both in the classroom and beyond.
ProStart is the cornerstone program of the National Restaurant Association Education Foundation and we’re so proud to take part in developing the future leaders of the culinary arts field!
