The Continuing Professional Studies Office is teaming up with the Small Business Development Center and the Amherst Chamber of Commerce to present RISE Up (Restaurants Ignite Skills and Education), an intensive 10-day comprehensive restaurant skills training program designed by Kathleen O’Brien and Don Schmitter of the Hospitality and Tourism Department, to be held July 12–23.

The program is supported by the local restaurant community, and presenters will include some of the area’s best-known chefs and restaurateurs. After working their way through the gamut of basic restaurant operations and hands-on opportunities to practice their new skills, participants who successfully complete the program will interview for positions set to start immediately.
