Culinary Academy of Austin - Austin

Culinary Academy of Austin implements a unique approach to studying the culinary arts. The Professional Culinary Arts curriculum is comprised of five major blocks ~ each block spans a three month period (quarter year system). Culinary Academy of Austin’s set of courses is fashioned so that new students may start every three months.

With our small classes and the individual attention that our instructors can give, students never feel overwhelmed. Students also have real experience in the industry through a 400 hour externship completed while in school or shortly thereafter.

The Pastry Arts Program consists of 498 hours (6 months) of baker/pastry training. It is designed to give students a solid foundation to the Pastry Arts and prepare them for entry to mid-level jobs as a pastry assistant. This is further achieved by the 120 hour externship required of each student. The Pastry Arts Program is also an ideal course for non-professionals who wish to improve and extend their pastry skills and knowledge.
