The Baking ATA degree builds on the content from the Baking Certificate with emphasis on specialty baking and pastry skills. The degree offers practical application in theoretical knowledge, professionalism, safety, sanitation, baking methods, creativity, and an emphasis on meeting industry standards in baking. Course work prepares students for employment as baking/pastry professionals in a variety of food service settings including restaurants, hotels, resorts, catering businesses, independent bakeries/pastry shops, wholesale/retail markets, and high volume bakeries.
Credit/Grade Requirements This ATA degree requires successful completion of a minimum of 98 credits as outlined. A minimum of 30 credits or one-third of the required credits, whichever is less, must be earned at Edmonds Community College. Students are required to maintain a minimum cumulative grade point average of 2.0 in all college-level courses, as well as a minimum grade of 2.0 in all culinary classes.
Cultural Diversity Requirement All students earning degrees and certificates of 45 credits or more must meet a cultural diversity (CD) requirement by completing courses marked as “CD” on the requirement sheet and/or “Meets Cultural Diversity Requirement” in the quarterly class schedule. Those courses may also be used to fulfill other requirements of the degree or certificate.
