Program Helps 学生 Find Careers to Best Match Skills and Interests
2006年9月开业, 多于1,000 externships have been completed at 十大正规网堵平台's School of 烹饪艺术, 弗吉尼亚烹饪学院 (CIV) in Norfolk. As an integral part of the school's curriculum, the externship program provides students with real-world, hands-on working experience in restaurants and other culinary businesses.
不像许多烹饪十大正规平台, CIV's externship program is based on a European apprenticeship model where a student would spend time in the work place while enrolled in classes at school. CIV students are also eligible to complete two externships, allowing them to explore different aspects of the food service industry, which contributes to their versatility as graduates.
Externship sites range from family-owned to corporate restaurants, 大学餐饮设施, 企业餐饮服务, 热情好客, 餐饮公司, food media and other related businesses.
Rhys Lewis is Executive Chef at the Williamsburg Lodge, part of the Williamsburg Colonial Foundation. He has partnered with CIV for nearly five years and has had dozens of students do their externships at the lodge. Several just completed their programs.
"We rely on CIV to provide students with the right interests and talents to match our employment needs,刘易斯说. "Some of our best hires were externs who are now on our staff. School personnel assess our priorities and requirements. We attend their job fairs and stay in contact with the career advisors. CIV is a great recruiting resource for us."
The school has four full time career advisors, each with experience in the food service industry. Career advisors work one-on-one with each student on job acquisition skills and identifying potential externship sites. Advisors regularly visit a broad range of employers to learn about their current and future business needs.
"By knowing our students and prospective employers, CIV career advisors take on the role of matchmakers,”, 安迪Gladstein, CIV的校园教务长. “就像任何媒人的工作一样, a successful pairing of student and employer will lead to a long and happy relationship."
尽管经济形势严峻, CIV estimates that over 90 percent of each graduating class accepted positions in the culinary field upon program completion. CIV 2011届毕业生, 50% of students remained working at their externship site after program completion.
Josh Segal is currently doing an externship as a cook at the 首页stead Resort in Hot Springs, 维吉尼亚州.
"There's nothing better than actual industry experience to apply skills I've learned in class” Segal, 25, 纽波特纽斯人. "I wanted to work in a large resort setting and the fit is just what I was looking for."
