Hello Ayesha S ,

Many well known individuals have learned their craft from working under mentor-chefs or through an intern program.
Graduating from a culinary academy or training program does give the student an edge when seeking employment
Most chefs and head cooks learn their skills through work experience. Others receive training at a community college, technical school, culinary arts school, or 4-year college. Some learn through apprenticeship programs having said this formal training is not a prerequisite for employment.

Good Luck !

Hi Ayesha!


Chefs don't have education requirements after high school, but many of them do on to get bachelor's or associate degrees. The most important thing is getting as much experience as possible! Internships may be very useful. You can also become certified with the American Culinary Federation (ACF), which is not required but may help your resume stand out from the rest!

No matter the diploma, certificate or degree that results from attending a culinary school, students should feel secure the curriculum will be focused strongly on what it takes to become a chef. Completion might require a commitment of anywhere from one to four years.
