Description

The UNITE HERE Chicago Hospitality Institute’s Chef de Partie Culinary Apprenticeship provides aspiring cooks with the opportunity to develop their culinary skills in a professional kitchen environment.  This hands-on program is designed for individuals who are passionate about cooking and eager to learn.

 

Throughout the apprenticeship, participants will work under the guidance of experienced chefs, gaining practical experience in sautéing, fabrication, and sauce preparation.  The 8-week on-site training program includes classroom instruction, a kitchen lab, job readiness, interview preparation, and resume creation, followed by paid on-the-job training.  This portion of the training enables apprentices to learn techniques, flavor profiles, and food safety practices, and to apply them in real time.

 

In addition to culinary techniques, the program emphasizes teamwork and time management, equipping participants with the tools needed to advance their culinary careers.  By the end of the apprenticeship, participants will have the confidence and experience to pursue further culinary opportunities.

 

UHCHI is a great post-secondary option for recent grads, out-of-school youth aged 18-24, or for parents interested in a culinary career without incurring debt.

 

We are a WIOA-approved training provider, so our participants incur no financial responsibility.  We provide uniforms, slip-resistant shoe covers, textbooks, and transportation benefits.
