PROSTART / CTE TRAINING & RESOURCES

ProStart® curriculum, hands on training, and experiences benefit your students as they learn how to choose items and make creative menus based on nutrition and budget, utilize safe sanitation techniques, and discover and practice important job readiness and ‘soft skills.’ These skills include communication, teamwork, and decision-making, all while learning about the multiple high opportunity / high wage careers the food service industry offers.

CAREER AND TECHNICAL (CTE) CULINARY PROGRAM

​“Foundations of Restaurant Management and Culinary Arts” was developed by subject-matter experts and is published by the NRAEF. The two levels of the curriculum – Level One and Level Two – are not designed to be sequential; this makes it possible for small schools with limited resources to offer the ProStart program to students. 
 
To learn more about resources available, what fits your needs and budget or to order ProStart® curriculum for your school, contact Maggie Braunscheidel, Academic Sales Representative for the National Restaurant Association​, at 312.627.2423. 

Save the date! The 
OHF ProStart® Invitational will be held in Salem on March 13, 2023.

RESUME BUILDING TUTORIAL

The Oregon Hospitality Foundation partnered with McDonald Wholesale to produce a Hospitality Resume Building Tutorial for students who are starting to look for jobs. Our friends at McDonald Wholesale produced this video resource to cover important topics such as creating a personal brand, what to expect when applying for a job, how to write an effective cover letter, and how to build a resume.
