Top 10 Reasons to Attend CSCA - click here

Where we separate the chefs from the cooks.

California School of Culinary Arts is a partner with the internationally renowned Le Cordon Bleu -the leading authority on culinary techniques, training and development for over a century. The LCB emblem can open a lot of doors in this industry. As a result, students in the Le Cordon Bleu Culinary Arts Program are afforded even greater opportunities to acquire the knowledge and skills necessary to excel in the culinary world.

The Associates of Occupational Studies Degree program can be completed in as little as 15-months, including an externship. Graduates of the culinary arts program also receive the Le Cordon Bleu diplôme.

At CSCA, instruction begins with classical French techniques and terminology, and progresses to innovative, modern application. Culinary students work beside industry-trained Chef Instructors who are committed to excellence in culinary arts education. Lab classes are small with every student completing each facet of the lesson plan. Students are tested on individual performance and work habits, and Chef Instructors carefully monitor each student's progress. We believe this approach is the only way to ensure our students get the attention they need to be fully trained in our curriculum.

  • Professional Le Cordon Bleu Training. The study of classic French techniques combined with modern American technologies can give you the edge in the culinary world.
  • Focused program, including Externship. Our program is professional, comprehensive and designed to get you started on your career immediately.
  • Externship program. Our externship program takes you out of the classroom and puts you into real-life culinary environments, providing you with invaluable work experience before you finish your degree.
  • Located at the nexus of Southern California. The Los Angeles area is a multicultural melting pot, with authentic exposure to every world cuisine-not to mention some of the finest restaurants in the nation.
  • Career placement assistance service & networking. Our career placement services can connect you with restaurants, resorts, hotels, and cruise lines.
  • Financial aid is available for those who qualify. We can help you get access to a wide range of financial assistance plans.
