Continuing Education Education is the key to rebuilding the image, identity and pride of the traditional baker. The National Baking Center offers professional-level continuing education seminars and short courses in breads and pastries.
Courses focus on classic, fundamental techniques and their underlying principles.
Emphasis is placed on understanding the baking process and developing skills, so that bakers can solve problems, control production, and improve quality in their own bakeries. National Baking Center Internship Internships of six month duration are available for individuals seriously committed to the baking industry who have at least 18 months experience or education in baking.
