Worldchefs developed the Sustainability Education for Culinary Professionals curriculum to teach chefs how to think and act sustainably. The free course includes 8 lessons to help students engage with key themes and learn how to inspire positive change for both the planet and the bottom line.
In partnership with Food for Soul, we are relaunching the online learning journey for all culinary professionals who are interested in taking their first step to learn about sustainable food and kitchen practices. Join us for the kickoff session with Chef Chris Koetke, Feed The Planet Chairman and learn about our lesson plan and learning outcomes. After completion, the learners are awarded with a Feed The Planet digital badge and certificate.
Sustainability Education for Culinary Professionals is part of Feed The Planet, an initiative to promote food sustainability founded by Worldchefs, powered by Electrolux Food Foundation and AIESEC.
