For-Profit College: Costly Lesson - CBS News

Never heard of Bidwell but it looks fine. Mostly hands on which is good and should be cheaper than PCI. Course work wise, it seems to cover the basic and some advanced skills but not much beyond those in the kitchen.

The only thing to look into is the time spent in the kitchens and the chefs experience.

Also, go to some restaurants you would want to work at, grab a seat at the bar on a slow night. Order some food and a beer and make conversation with the staff. I do this to make contacts for students but you could do the same and possibly ask for advice on schools or for work opportunities.
