In May 2008, the VCHC completed a pilot program. This pilot certification reflects a combined initiative of the Vermont Hospitality Committee of the Vermont Chamber of Commerce, the Vermont Department of Education, and New England Culinary Institute. The intent is to assess and recognize individuals within Vermont technical centers who demonstrate outstanding entry level culinary arts knowledge and skills. The VCHC is now working with the Vermont Department of Education and the Department of Labor to take this pilot program into its second phase.
Vermont Chamber members also receive discounts from the American Hotel and Lodging Educational Institute, a premier provider of hospitality training and certifications worldwide, offering nationally recognized products and services to increase operational efficiency and deliver bottom line results. Call us at 802-223-3443 to ask about this benefit.
