In Tennessee, CASA is a one-on-one culinary apprenticeship: you train inside a working restaurant kitchen with a professional chef as your mentor, instead of in a classroom. CASA lists Nashville as its Tennessee externship location; an advisor can tell you whether a chef mentor is taking mentees near you.
Are you passionate about cooking? If so, the culinary arts may be an exciting and rewarding career choice for you. The Chef Apprentice Studio of the Arts in Tennessee offers accelerated programs to give you foundational skills that translate to almost any kitchen in the world. Instead of a classroom kitchen where you learn with others from a teacher, you’ll get one-on-one attention from your mentor, a professional chef with years of experience, in an actual working kitchen! You’ll also make connections with people working in the industry.
We also provide flexible scheduling options that allow you to customize your learning experience based on your own needs and goals while still providing structure. If you are serious about pursuing a career in the culinary arts, talk with a mentee advisor today! Don’t talk yourself out of leading the life you were meant to lead.
