Five foodservice students from various hotel and lodging companies on Oʻahu completed the first-ever (HARIETT) Culinary Vocational Arts Program at .

The program provided students with academic training and practical laboratory skills training. Students participated in the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation’s ManageFirst program classes in food safety and sanitation, menu planning, purchasing, inventory control and management. The 245-hour laboratory skills training classes included food production, basic baking and garde manger.

“I really enjoyed this class and learned so much. It was hard, but I learned very good lessons on how not to give up when the pressure is on,” said Lisa Hao, HARIETT student.

Windward Community College Career and Community Education and HARIETT partnered to provide the 473-hour culinary education and training program.
