Stratford Chefs School was where I knew I wanted to get my training to move myself forward in my career and culinary experiences.

– SHANE JEFFERY (Class of 2019)
Training under Michelin starred chefs at the top of their game is what first attracted me to SCS; understanding the skill set of a Michelin star chef gives students the ability to be in that world!
