Cooking / Culinary / Diplôme d'études professionnelles

French term or phrase: Cuisine d'établissement

I'm translating a 'Diplôme d'études professionnelles' from Quebec, and the person has been awarded this diploma in 'Cuisine d'établissement'. After doing some research, it seems that some websites (like this bilingual one: http://www.lasallecollege.com/fr-ca/programs/dep_5311_hotell... ), translate the the term as 'Professional Cooking', whereas others, (like: http://www.skillscanada.com/index.php?option=com_docman&task... use 'Culinary Arts', which seems slightly more vague. I think I prefer 'Professional Cooking', but I just wanted to see if anyone could confirm this or had any other ideas.

Any help would be appreciated.

Especially since you are looking at it in terms of a profession.

Cooking (Restaurants, Hotels and Institutions) / Cooking (Non-Private)

Explanation:
These inelegant suggestions are based on the equally awkward “Cooking (Except Private Service)” from the Government of Canada’s terminology database, Termium. “Institutional” is perhaps too narrow, as it does not include most restaurants and hotels. And “Professional” is perhaps too inclusive, as a professionally-trained chef could work in a private home.
