Cape Region food industry professionals recently teamed up to help local high schoolers realize their dreams. Every spring, the business of eating here in the Cape Region faces the inescapable fact that trustworthy, skilled help in professional kitchens is getting harder to find.
In response to this, the Delaware Restaurant Association stepped up to the plate with the well-regarded ProStart program – a nationwide, two-year, industry-written curriculum for high school students. Graduates can either apply their newfound culinary and management skills to entry-level positions in the industry, or continue their education at professional postsecondary culinary schools.
