Happy New Year to our community! We are excited to share our Winter Program Schedule, starting off with the launch of our 2026 Workshop Series. These free workshops are designed to support individuals building skills for careers in food service and culinary fields, and participants will receive a certificate of completion from Highline College’s Continuing Education Dept for 15-hours of job training
Applications for the first two workshops are linked in our bio. Please share with anyone you know who might benefit from these programs.
•WA Food Worker Card for English Language Learners:
Designed for immigrants, refugees, and English language learners, this 1-week workshop provides participants with assistance in becoming a WA Food Worker while navigating language or cultural barriers. Project Feast will facilitate classroom, group, and individual learning while reviewing the WA Food Worker Manual, practicing new English vocabulary, and discussing cultural similarities and differences. Students will take the WA Food Worker test on their last day and passing scores will have their fee paid for by Project Feast.

•Culinary Workforce Development:
During this one-week workshop, participants who are hoping to enter the culinary workforce but face language, cultural, or other barriers will receive guidance on how to craft their resume, search and apply for culinary jobs online, and prepare for and practice interviewing. Emphasis will be placed on learning professional culinary English language and workforce expectations in the US food industry.
