Find better jobs in the local culinary industry
The Community Culinary School of Charlotte helps recreate lives for people who have experienced barriers to employment.
If you're dissatisfied with your job and want to work hard for something better in the culinary arts, CCSC is for you.
The school combines classroom training with hands-on food preparation experience in a production kitchen feeding more than 700 people a day. Immersion in a teamwork environment during the school's three-month class sessions prepares graduates for the workplace.
CCSC is not for the faint of heart. It IS for people motivated to improve their life and make their way in the culinary world. Our graduates find jobs at local restaurants, hospital cafes, assisted living centers and country clubs.
