Whether you enjoy cooking with organic ingredients or would like to study in a state that embraces culinary students from around the world, applying to Colorado culinary schools is a great step to realizing your dream as a professional chef. Studying in Colorado is a once in a lifetime experience for upcoming chefs to learn top cooking and baking skills, join relevant industry associations and meet local chefs to help propel you into the future. The state’s culinary scene is a vibrant one where students can get the most out of their education.

Some of the most recommended Colorado culinary schools include:

The Art Institute of Colorado offers students acclaimed courses at its International Culinary Schools. Students can enrol for the Associate degree in Culinary Arts, Baking and Pastry, Diploma in Art of Cooking and a Bachelor’s degree in Culinary Management

The Culinary School of the Rockies provides an interesting and scenic place for students to study and have access to the best local chefs in the state.

Johnson and Wales University has associate degrees in baking and pastry, culinary arts, bachelor degrees in food management and culinary nutrition available for prospective students.

For more intensive training, students can enroll at the Cook Street School of Fine Cooking. This is a 5-month program where students can undergo vigorous practical training under the eye of local chefs to prepare for work in the industry.

After completing a course at any of these Colorado culinary schools, new chefs qualify to start working as:

  • Chefs in restaurants
  • Chefs in resorts and hotels
  • Cooks for catering companies
  • Chefs for corporate organizations
  • Personal chefs for private clients
  • Chefs or cooks at local ski resorts
  • Restaurant owners or managers

In order to further your career, it is highly advisable to become an active member of any or all of these culinary associations:

  • The Colorado Restaurant Association represents members in the hospitality industry and also works to educate them in culinary and legal matters.
  • The Colorado Chef’s Association is a branch of the American Culinary Federation which protects and nurtures budding and experienced chefs in all areas of the industry.
  • If you are interested in becoming a nutrition consultant for local restaurants, joining the Colorado Dietetic Association is a great choice
  • The International Association of Culinary Professionals is a wonderful place for newly qualified chefs to network with members from other states and countries.

Receiving your qualification and joining industry associations will get your career off to a great start but you should not neglect the opportunities that state festivals provide for new chefs. A Taste of Colorado, Boulder Food and Wine Festival and the Food and Wine festival in Aspen are just some of the annual gatherings where chefs meet with locals to display culinary creativity, network and connect with potential employers and business partners. Becoming actively involved in festivals is also a great way to know your customers’ preferences if you’d like to work in Colorado.
