The Culinary Arts Program at Job Corps will prepare you for a job as a prep cook in a kitchen, teaching you soups, salads, quick breads, how to host, serve, do buffet type banquets and stuff like that, in order to really get ahead with the Job Corps thing in Culinary Arts is to start off with the Basic Culinary Arts program wherever you're from and then transfer to the Advanced Culinary Arts program in San Francisco which Job Corps is more than willing to pay for you getting there and going back home. I attended the Basic Culinary Arts program in San Francisco, (I'm not from there by the way) and the stuff the advanced students did was amazing. They have a 10 week baking course, fine dining classes which prepare you to work for the fancy restaurants, they give you internships to work for about 15 dollars an hour part time at a restaurant that's close by, it's an open campus meaning you get to leave the campus after school. It was just an amazing opportunity, a bit scary but amazing all the same.

But either way, before you get the trade of your choice, you can explore the other trades and check and see which ones pay the most and have the most promise of expanding career wise later on. They (at the Job Corps Center) give you the information and let you make up your mind afterwards, or at least my center did. And My center also let me "try out" certain careers for a week and then decide which one I wanted to be in but my choice was always Culinary Arts.

And another thing I suggest you look into before you decide on a certain Job Corps center is seeing if it's open or closed campus. TRUST ME! Closed campuses will have you feeling SUFFOCATED!!! Since you're not allowed to leave the campus whenever you want.
Anyways, I hope this information helped you...
