Le Cordon Bleu Will Close Their Cooking School

I am sorry to hear that Le Cordon Bleu will be closing their doors in the USA effective September 2017.  LCB has produced some excellent Chefs and teammates.

Who will replace LCB in a nationwide culinary school?

I wish the LCB instructors the best of luck in the career search.

I don't think a nationwide culinary school is the answer. A culinary school doesn't do well at that large a scale in my opinion. It will be up to regional and smaller schools as well as High School Culinary program to take up the slack.

Wow I went to S.c.i. and it's hard to believe that le cordon bleu is closing. I met some very talented cooks who are chefs now like myself. That is a shame

I teach at LCB Austin for 5 years and on my last year I could see this coming. Very sad for the instructors
