About the Program

Are you the one always asked to bake sweet delights for family gatherings? The culinary arts offer boundless possibilities. There is more to the restaurant industry than just the art of cooking; Santa Fe Community College will give you hands-on experience to teach you proper pastry tool techniques, large kitchen equipment operation and basic to advanced baking methods and the chance to create edible works of art.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, job openings for chefs, cooks and food-preparation workers are expected to be abundant through 2010. In Santa Fe alone, the possibilities for pastry chefs are endless. In this tourist-based town, hundreds of fine hotels and restaurants offer opportunities for you to create your own recipe for success with a patissier certificate.
