Question:
I started working in the banking industry when I was 19 years old. I am being laid off after 12 years in a few months. I’ve spent the majority of my adult life in the banking industry and am looking into possible career retraining courses to get into the culinary world. Are there any organizations out there to help someone in my situation? I just feel like I need support!
Answer:
Second and even third careers are becoming a much more normal part of an adult’s life span. There are certainly many materials to support your explorations of culinary school. Online-Education.net offers resources that can help you find colleges or community colleges in your area offering culinary programs. There are also accredited online culinary schools you can consider.
In the meantime, what kind of experience have you had? Is cooking a favorite hobby of yours? One possibility while you are looking into culinary schools is to spend some time at a job which exposes you to the field, such as helping in a catering business. Many aspiring chefs take on internships to gain experience in the industry and hone their skills in the kitchen.
