The RFEC has deep rooted support toward educational and apprenticeship programs. The following RFEC properties support a variety of American Culinary Federation accredited primary apprenticeship programs for culinary and pastry as well as secondary apprenticeships and journeymen opportunities.
Stage to be held at the Annual Hosting Property
In support of its original founding intent the Resort Food Executive Committee has established a Scholarship Fund for culinary apprentices of member properties. Our goal is to challenge our best young culinarians to grow and showcase what they have learned.
This competition will award two apprentices as finalists; each finalist will receive $500 for the purchase of culinary related goods and an invitation to "stage" in the kitchens of the host resort property for that year during the RFEC annual meeting for which transportation, room and board will be covered by the RFEC Board and the Host Property making this into an amazing opportunity for every aspiring culinary apprentice.
