At the Career College where I work, our Culinary Arts Department has the lowest retention in the school. I am afraid that many of the students decide to come to our school because of the way our profession is portrayed on television. Once they begin school, they are hit with a dose of reality and think twice about continuing.
My question is, how do I let my students know what this industry is all about while at the same time keeping them motivated to continue in the program?
