Career Education starts culinary school

Career Education Corporation, with offices in Hoffman Estates, announced the launch of Kitchen Academy Seattle, a professional culinary school distinguished by its proprietary Accelerated Training System which allows a student to finish a program in as little as 30 weeks.

The student workstations, equipped with LCD monitors, provide an optimal setup for chefs in training.
