To the Apprenticeship program at the Mount Washington Resort at Bretton Woods
Note: To print this page, click here.The New Hampshire Culinary Institute encompasses the Associate in Science Degree at WMCC and Apprenticeship programs at the grand hotels of New Hampshire - the Balsams Grand Resort Hotel in Dixville Notch and the Mount Washington Resort at Bretton Woods. The culinary program offers two options: the two-year Culinary Arts Associate Degree and the Food Service Production Certificate, which can be earned in four semesters.
The two-year Associate Degree program provides a wide range of theory and practice. Graduates of the degree program have held positions as chefs, bakers, food production supervisors, food purchasing agents, food service instructors and restaurant owners. The Certificate program provides students with the major baking and food production courses.
Many culinary classes are offered as four-week modules. Each module focuses on a specific area of culinary expertise and carries one credit towards graduation. It should be noted that modules are not necessarily offered in the sequence in which they appear in the profile below. In addition to regular culinary classes, students spend a portion of their lab time at the college-associated restaurants receiving hands-on experience. Students must also successfully complete a "black box" final practical exam in their senior year as a requirement for graduation.
Students are required to have medical insurance before entering this program. Students must purchase a basic set of professional knives at approximately $160, as well as three sets of uniforms at approximately $145. Further information will be mailed to students prior to the start of the semester.
