The Cooking and Hospitality Institute of Chicago - Request more information The Cooking and Hospitality Institute of Chicago (CHIC) was established in 1983. From the very beginning, we differentiated ourselves from other culinary institutions by using the traditional, European hands-on approach to culinary education – something that was previously difficult to obtain in the Midwest. Today, we are renowned for our culinary programs. Our recent affiliation with Le Cordon Bleu is a testament to our dedication to culinary excellence. And as the food service industry continues to grow, we are preparing more students in the Chicagoland area for successful careers than anyone else. An Education That Runs the Gamut. From the first students to complete our Professional Cooking Program, CHIC graduates have been known to possess the skills the industry needs. In fact, the demand for CHIC graduates exceeds our current enrollment. While culinary curricula is the cornerstone of the Institute, we take all education seriously. Our Mission recognizes the need to inspire learning as a lifelong journey. Across the board, our classes and programs provide students with a top education and overall experience that's second to none. Who succeeds at CHIC? Anyone who has a passion for cooking and a willingness to learn. At CHIC, we combine classical cooking techniques with leading-edge American technology. The result is a program that has been successful longer than any other in the area. Our students range from recent high school graduates, to international students, to professionals ready to make a career change. So if you are ready to get serious about a culinary career, there's only one place to go. |
