ACF MasterCraft Summit Series
ACF Culinary Educator Summit
Are YOU shaping the next generation of culinary and pastry professionals? Secondary, Post-Secondary, Workforce Development Chef Instructors, and CTE professionals of all levels are invited to participate as we launch our one-day ACF professional development summit just for culinary educators.
In a supportive and collaborative environment, we’ll challenge both new and more “seasoned” culinary educators to expand their areas of expertise, while sharing their passion for teaching future chefs and cooks.
With sessions designed specifically to encourage networking and knowledge sharing between instructors, you’ll make new connections as we explore new techniques and actionable strategies which can be implemented as you continue to train and inspire our future work-ready culinarians. You don’t want to miss presentations focused on education best practices being utilized by your colleagues at programs across the country!
