It depends on how much money you expect to make and how high you want to achieve. There are certificate programs that take months, 2 year Associate of Science degree programs and 4 year Bachelor degree programs. The more education you have, the better chef you'll be whether it be through formal training or real world experience.

The apprenticeship program is three years. 1560 hrs. of on the job training, Followed by eight weeks of school per year.
