Greetings!

Do you need help building a stronger, more skilled culinary team in your school kitchens? Please read on...

The Creating and Executing a Culinary Advancement Plan, CECAP, grant is your gateway to customized support from the Culinary Consultant at The John C. Stalker Institute (JSI). 


By completing the CECAP intake survey, your school will be tiered into one of three Culinary Readiness Tiers (1–3)—each designed to match you with the level of assistance that best meets your needs.


Once tiered, you will gain:

  1. A dedicated culinary consultant to help you plan and execute your SMART goal
  2. Customized training recommendations and guidance for advancing your staff’s skill, confidence, and knowledge while working up to the next Tier 
  3. Eligibility for our exclusive 12-week Chef Coaching Program, designed to develop long-lasting culinary confidence and skill through on-the-job training
  4. Mentoring opportunities from peer support, networking sessions, and site visits to Tier 3 schools

Whether you’re looking to improve scratch cooking, enhance meal presentation, boost kitchen efficiencies, or build team confidence—CECAP can help you make it happen.
