On September 10th of 2018, the first class of the Le Cordon Bleu Rio de Janeiro Diploma Cordontec began. A professional diploma, exclusive for Brazil, designed for students to explore all areas of gastronomy as well as experiencing an integrated internship at the Institute's café and restaurant. Our brave students embarked on this diploma, with 800 hours over a whole year, an intense journey!

Our first class was a mix of profiles, such as entrepreneurs from Rio de Janeiro, Espirito Santo, teachers, nurses, mothers, fathers and executives, who, together, joined Le Cordon Bleu family.

Our students discovered their passions after exploring all areas of gastronomy: Cuisine, Pâtisserie, Boulangerie and Services! And on August 2^nd 2019, we celebrated this achievement with a cocktail at the Institute with the students and their families. The ceremony was marked by speeches by the chefs, students and our director Sofia Mesquita, an unforgettable night! Diplôme CordonTec's first class in the world, first of many!
