The Advanced Culinary programs at Orange Coast College provide an in-depth course of study in their respective areas. The Advanced Certificates in both Culinary Arts and Baking/Pastry are accredited by the American Culinary Federation Foundation Accrediting Commission and students may earn ACF Certification upon graduation. The Advanced Certificates may be paired with the general education requirements (see catalog) for the Associate in Science degree(s). The heart of our programs is the hands-on laboratory instruction, which is reinforced by supplemental lectures.
