Our Faculty
The faculty at the School of Hospitality and Culinary Arts bring a world of experience to the classroom. A number of our instructors have international experience, and several more have won multiple awards. Many are former NAIT grads, back to share their knowledge with the next generation of students.
Our instructors are dedicated to student success, mentoring them in the classroom and through our various student clubs. The manager and coaches of Culinary Team NAIT have also guided our students to a number of provincial, national and international awards.
Our full-time faculty is complemented by a number of visiting chefs and the Hokanson Chef in Residence.
Occupational Health and Safety (OHS)
The School of Hospitality and Culinary Arts is dedicated to providing a safe working environment for our staff and students. Our faculty's award-winning Occupational Health and Safety Committee works to create a greater understanding of OHS issues in the school so our students enter the industry with a firm knowledge of an effective OHS program.
