You are not alone...
Even though this
is a home study course you will not be all on your own.
You will have a
dedicated facilitator to guide you through the material and there are
other people from all over the world with whom you can
share your experiences.
If you are the
social type, there is plenty of
voluntary interaction with your fellow participants and course facilitator in
the online course discussion forums. The most popular being the
Learning Forums which contains a treasure trove of recipe reviews.
How long will it take?
The course material
is divided into 8 easily digestible (pardon the pun) weekly sessions.
Each session contains a bit of theory or background reading, with
learning activities, and two practical sessions. In the first
practical you will
learn how to make a new gourmet herb and spice pantry product, and in
the second practical you will learn how to add one or two new herbs to your
cooking repertoire.
You will need to devote
an average of
about 3 hours per week to
this course. One hour reading through the weekly
material, selecting recipes, and doing your short assignment and
online quiz. And about two hours, doing what you do
anyway, cooking for yourself and your guests. (So there is no huge additional
demand on your time.)
The difference being that this
time you will be cooking up a storm and impressing your guests with
your new 5 star recipes and dishes that burst with flavour.
But here's the great
part. Even though it is a 8 week course, you have 10 weeks to complete
it. We know that you have
other demands on your time and sometimes things don't go as planned. Therefore we give you ample time to
complete the course.
