The Culinary Institute of the Pacific at KCC would like to spread the word about enrollment for the LAST ROUND of their two grant-funded Apprenticeship Programs. These programs allow you to send your Cooks and Managers through FREE training at KCC while they complete a list of on-the-job competencies. If you read about these programs in this newsletter previously and never took action, now is the time because the grant is nearing its end, so don’t miss out!
These classes are designed to elevate the hospitality workforce in Hawaii and have been incredibly popular over the past two years. Trainings are designed to work around the schedule of a full-time employee so they are very flexible (one day in-person for Cooks and online classes for Managers). Apprentices will work through every station, will receive a free ServSafe certification, and will learn skills that will greatly benefit your business and their lives.
