New School of Cooking

We base our teaching on a combination of classical and modern cooking through contemporary concepts in a technique-based approach. Recipes are important, but mastering skills involves hands-on learning. Our graduates can walk into any kitchen and feel right at home with the training they have received. If you just want to learn to cook or bake better New School has a program, class, or series for every skill level and area of interest from single-themed classes and series to our highly-regarded 20-week ProCooking and ProBaking. If you are looking for a school for career-training in California it is important to ask if it is approved by the Bureau for Private Post-secondary Education. This approval means the school meets the highest standards and the credential you earn is recognized by employers. Our full-time professional programs in culinary arts and baking and pastry arts are approved by the State of California. In fact, New School of Cooking is the only independent, State-approved culinary school in Los Angeles.
