Overbaugh's class was a part of the St. Joseph Center's Culinary Training Program, an innovative vocational initiative to help unemployed men and women get back on their feet by training them for then assisting them in getting jobs.

The program consists of ten weeks of classroom and kitchen training and establishes a career path that provides plenty of opportunities for advancement.

Chef James Overbaugh is currently mentoring students through the internship program in the kitchen of The Peninsula Beverly Hills and is thrilled to share his culinary expertise with the students of the St. Joseph Center.

As a graduate of St. Joseph Center in July 2009, I was blessed enough to have a chance to complete my externship at the Peninsula Hotel. The professionalism of all the Sous Chefs and Executive Chef surely filtered down from Chef Overbaugh. The kitchen there was immaculate, while having,a well trained brigade. Thank you Chef for the experience of a lifetime. Your Name: Your Location: Vote: Choose 1 - Dreadful 2 - Poor 3 - Fair 4 - Good 5 - Excellent Your Comment: Security check *
