Introduction

Classic Cooking Academy (CCA) is a 501(c)3 non-profit, private postsecondary cooking school dedicated to providing the best professional culinary education.  CCA believes that a student must be well rounded in both the theory and techniques of cooking before applying individual interpretation to develop his or her own creative styles.  Our students learn through close interaction with instructors as they prepare to enter a variety of culinary professions.  CCA develops students with the ability to adapt to the changing culinary world in the 21st century.    

Classic Cooking Academy’s European and American-trained chefs instruct students in food theory and the technical skills of food preparation.  We combine classic French techniques with modern and Native American sensibilities to provide a solid foundation for a culinary career.  The staff at CCA has over 20 years of experience training students for the demands of the rigorous culinary world.    

CCA will give the tools necessary to perform in a professional kitchen.  Not only do students receive hands-on supervised training, they work independently to enhance their creativity and in groups to develop team-work concepts.  The result is a graduate with a firm grasp of both basic and advanced culinary skills, theoretical knowledge, a good attitude, and technical and practical experience.
