BAK
Certificate
The Baking (BAK) Certificate is offered to corporate partners.
The BAK Certificate requires 38 credits to complete.
Students will complete a minimum of a semester of bakery industry experience. Students will sign a contractual agreement with an externship site. The following options are available: 1) Competitive participation in one of the externships developed by the College; or 2) Independent externship in the industry secured by the student that meets the approval of the Program Coordinator. Verified work experience of one year prior to enrollment at Paul Smith's may be substituted for either option, providing that experience is comparable and applicable to the student's major (see Externship Verification Process section). Enrollment in either of the two options requires a cumulative GPA of 2.00 or better. Grading is pass/fail based on completion of the contractual agreement with the externship property and adherence to their rules and regulations of employment as well as to Paul Smith's College rules of student conduct.
