New England Culinary Institute
New England Culinary Institute is a private, co-educational school in
Montpelier, Vermont. Founded in 1980, its mission was to create a new
education model by immersing students from day one as apprentices to Master
Chefs. Every student has one or more six-month paid internships at some of
the finest restaurants, resorts and corporations in the world. Nearly 30
years ago, NECI opened with a class of seven pioneering students. It now
boasts over 500 students of diverse backgrounds and ages. Throughout its

been dedicated to providing small classes, intense education, and a caring
environment. NECI has a faculty of fifty-four who have impressive
