Small classes and close collaboration between teachers and students provide students with the personal attention needed to develop into a creative and individual chef. Practising in the school’s fine-dining restaurant during the theory semester provides students with the practical experience they need to be well prepared for their internship semester.
The Culinary Arts Academy Switzerland places great emphasis on offering students the opportunity to actively develop into a professional chef. This is not only done through classroom instruction, but we also organize excursions to restaurants, wineries, food producers, fairs and gastronomic events.
