About the course

At NAIT, Culinary Arts classes begin early in the morning, which is reflective of typical work hours in industry. The kitchen environment can be loud, hot, and humid, while using stoves, ovens, knives, and many other types of kitchen equipment. Standing for long periods of time is common. Shift work and working on weekends and holidays is also typical in the industry. In the culinary field the principles of professionalism are key, along with respect, responsibility, and accountability. Activities in the Culinary field involve proficiency in the following: use of basic math skills such as measurement calculation, clear and concise written and verbal communication, and an ability to adhere to public health and safety standards. Kitchen environments may involve lifting and moving objects up to 25 kg (55 lbs.). These skills are essential to be successful in the Culinary Arts program and to fulfill all the requirements of working in any food service profession.
