You don t have to as most major cities have vocational colleges that have culinary training programs. However, if you are just starting in your career and you can get a degree from Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park or San Francisco you are going to earn more at least starting out. It is the best culinary school in the country.Here is their link: http://www.ciachef.edu/You might also try: http://www.chefs.edu/san-francisco/If you need to stay local try: http://www.chefva.com/orhttp://www.collegesurfing.com/blank/art_��Both are in Virginia.Hope this helps!
