COE Reception 4/2/12

Baldwin Park Adult and Communtiy Education (BPACE) recently went through an accreditation review from the Council on Occupational Education (COE). The review went really well for the school with minimal suggestions and recommendations. During the review we received 1 Special Acommendation for the Food Service and Hospitality-Culinary Arts Program. Way to go BPACE.  

Pandora on Green

Yesterday April 24, 2012, Chef Leslie took a group of Advanced students to the Pandora on Green in Pasadena, Ca. to tour thier facility and talk to the Executive Chef and Pastry Chef. Chef's did a demo and answered any questions students had. I want to thank Marc Hamilton, Director of Banquets and Catering for setting this up. Students had a great time.

Gingerbread House Display

I would like to welcome Chef Leslie Riley to our team of Chef Instructors. We are excited to have Chef L with us and look forward to some exciting things in the future.

On November 28, 2011, Chef Leslie and a small team of our Culinary students will be assembling an old Victorian Style Gingerbread colony at the Pacific Palms Resort in their Hotel Lobby. Executive Chef Ray Leung asked if we would partner with the Hotel to create this holiday arrangement. We are honored to be partners with the Resort. We will have pictures to follow Chef Leslie's creation.

Welcome Chef Leslie Riley!
