Food Fundamentals
With our Food FUNdamentals program, you can learn about the different jobs in the food industry. We will outline the qualifications and/requirements for various jobs in the industry. You can learn what it takes to get and do the job you want .
We will also be having a section on nutrition, meal planning, and basic cooking. We will also emphasize food and kitchen safety.
The program consists of a 4 week course, 5 days a week form 8:30 to 11:30. There is classroom time with guest speakers and cooking demonstrations. We also planned a variety of fascinating field trips to some of Tucson's top restaurants to food processing plants, and grocery stores.
There will be a lot of great cooking and everybody can take the delicious results home.
Many people find it difficult to qualify for the jobs they want due to limited work experience. For over 20 years dk Advocates has provided community-based, small group paid work experience programs, each supervised by an on-site Worksite Supervisor.
