About culinary education in Argentina

How culinary education is structured

Argentine culinary training spans official tertiary titles (Tecnicatura Superior en Gastronomia, about 2 to 2.5 years, published with a resolution number), university licenciaturas (Gato Dumas with Universidad de Palermo, 4 years) and school-issued professional certificates (cook, 1 year or 4 months intensive). The tertiary titles shown here cite SSPLINED resolutions; the issuing register was not checked.
