There are a wide variety of culinary schools abroad, from Italian cooking schools to studying the works of a patisserie in Paris. Students who are serious about becoming a top chef in their cuisine of choice might consider spending their entire culinary school experience through cooking courses abroad. There are programs that may last an entire academic year and may teach students everything they need to know. Some programs may require a certain amount of experience before enrolling. For students who wish to only spend a limited amount of time, there are shorter courses that may last only a few weeks to the entire summer.
The type of program that you apply for may depend on your level of experience and your ultimate goals. If cookery and technique mean little to you and you aspire to be no more than a fry cook at a local chain fast-food restaurant, then studying an extensive immersion course in France might not necessarily be a requirement. If, however, your goal is to be the next owner of a Michelin-rated restaurant somewhere in the world, then it might be wise to gain as much experience and education as possible and aim for the elite cooking programs that provide advanced training, education, and theory in culinary-rich cities such as Paris.
If the thought of studying in a country where they speak a language other than your own is intimidating, then rest assured that not every program has a foreign language requirement. However, it may be beneficial to study the language of the country in which you will be studying if you plan on staying there for an extended period of time. Research your program of choice thoroughly to find out if there is a language proficiency requirement before applying.
