PRIDE (People-Respect-Integrity-Diversity-Education)

People

To fulfill our mission, we serve various members of our community—students, interns, clients, employer partners, community groups, and the Culinary and Bartender unions. By working together, we can accomplish great things.

Respect

We respect the people we serve; we respect each other; and we respect everyone’s ideas and contributions to the organization. This consideration is reflected in how we communicate, interact, and treat each other every single day.

Integrity

We expect absolute integrity from our staff, including honesty, ethical behavior, and good citizenship. We demonstrate integrity through all that we do—our actions, our decisions, our attitudes, and our daily work ethic. The Academy relies on the staff’s expertise and professionalism. We are committed to making a difference in people’s lives.

Diversity

Diversity lies at the heart of the Academy and reflects the community we serve. We believe that varied backgrounds, ethnicities, experiences, and beliefs contribute to valuable new ideas and perspectives. In the Academy’s diverse environment, we respect individual differences. A diverse staff, leadership, and student body allow us to respond to the demands of a complex, ever-changing workplace.
