Get cooking with our popular Cooking Certificate program! Over ten weeks, you’ll learn from Guest Chefs who are top professionals and esteemed community cooks. Every other week, they will share their recipes and teach you the skills needed to create their signature dishes, which you can take home. On alternate weeks, you’ll experiment in our Cooking Labs, using provided ingredients and recipes to hone your culinary talents. By the end of the program, you’ll earn a certificate that enhances your job and college applications and connect with five new pro chefs to broaden your future employment network.
