How it works
Learn it. Do it.Show it.
Every course works the same way: short lessons, real practice, and assessment you can point to.
The method
Four steps,every module.
Short lessons
Each module pairs a few concept lessons with one hands-on practical. Watch, read, then check what you remember.
Practise at your own station
A chef's knife, a board, a scale and a thermometer are enough to begin Kitchen Foundations.
Send in your evidence
Photos, a short video or a document. An assessor marks it, gives feedback, and you can resubmit.
