OUR PROGRAMS

Food Service
The food service industry represents a wealth of hiring opportunities for those who have the requisite skill base. BDI can help by providing hands-on experience through our food service program. Trainees don't just hear about proper food service techniques, they receive firsthand experience in the food service industry by working at an on-site sandwich shop at a local engineering firm. The practical experience gained through this program allows trainees to become more competitive when seeking employment in the food service industry, and teaches them advanced customer relations skills. The program will rotate participants through various common roles in the food service industry, including
  • Cashier:
    • Greet customers and suggestive sell
