Prevention is the best tool to eliminate sexual harassment in the workplace. Employers are encouraged to take steps necessary to prevent sexual harassment from occurring. They should clearly communicate to employees that sexual harassment will not be tolerated. They can do so by providing sexual harassment training to their employees and by establishing an effective complaint or grievance process.
Why is this course important? When investigating allegations of sexual harassment, investigators look at the whole record, the circumstances, such as the nature of the sexual advances, and the context in which the alleged incidents occurred. www.foodmanagertesting.com |

Groups? The Food Guide Pyramid? How about weighing and measuring your food? Or better yet, does it

as taking a class like this one, you might want to ask yourself similar types of questions.

of the cook is still the most important factor in a preparation turning out well. A cook’s judgment is based
on experience, on an understanding of the raw materials available, and on knowledge of basic cooking
principles and food science.
Ever since Carême began to define the principles and methods that lie behind the recipes we use,
professional cooking has been based on procedures and methods rather than only on recipes. In the
twenty-first century, chefs have improved their knowledge not just of cooking theory but also of the
science behind it.
This course deals with basic principles. You will learn about what happens to food when it is heated,
about how food is cooked by different methods, and about rules of seasoning and flavoring. It is
important to understand the science of food and cooking so you can successfully use these principles in
the kitchen. www.chefcertification.com |

In this course, you will study the causes of food-borne diseases and kitchen injuries, and you will learn
ways of preventing them. Prevention, of course, is the most important thing to learn. It is not as important to be able to recite the names of disease-causing bacteria as it is to be able to prevent their growth in food.
Rules of personal hygiene and sanitary food handling were not invented just to make your life difficult.
There are good reasons for all of them. Instead of starting this module with lists of rules, we first talk
about the causes of food-borne diseases. Then, when we get to the rules, you will understand why they
are important. This will make them easier to remember and to practice.
The rules presented in this course are basic guidelines only. Local health departments have more detailed
regulations. All food-service operators are responsible for knowing the health department regulations in
their own city and state.
The information presented here is practical as well as theoretical. It should not merely be learned but also put to use systematically. One effective system food-service establishments can use to ensure food safety is the Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) system. This practical program identifies possible danger points and sets up procedures for corrective action. www.chefcertification.com |

This course is designed to grow awareness about the importance of executive functioning. Educators can
provide top-notch lessons and resources for students, but if students lack executive function, even the
best materials won’t produce the desired results. If students haven’t developed the brain-based skills to
focus, catch and correct errors, identify cause-and-effect relationships, and more, they can’t make sense
of lessons. Executive function is the missing link to student achievement.

For most of human history—and prehistory—grains have been the most important source of nutrients and calories to sustain life, and this remains true today in many parts of the world. For example, in parts of Asia, rice is eaten at nearly every meal. In Japan, the standard words for breakfast, lunch, and dinner can be translated as “morning rice,” “noon rice,” and “evening rice.”
In many regions, dried beans, eaten together with rice, are a more common source of protein than meat or fish. Dried legumes are actually matured, dried versions of some fresh vegetables are not immediately thought of as starches. However, they do have a high starch content and, because of their dried nature, are handled much like grains.
Pastas and noodles are important starchy foods made from grains, usually wheat, but also rice and other grains. In this course we look primarily at the noodle products inherited from Italian cuisine, but we also learn about noodles from other cuisines. chefcertification.com |

You have chosen a course that sheds light on the complicated process of designing and developing curriculum. Often times, the theoretical nature of this area of study can make the subject matter feel a bit heavy. I hope that we will present you with material that "breathes" by way of its applicability to the curriculum you are developing or teaching at your school or college. To shake off the feeling of being talked at (or even worse, lectured to), we have included many projects for hands-on application.

The breadth and depth of this subject can be overwhelming. There are so many ideas and psychological theories; it would take years to fully understand them all.

Instead, what we have done is sift through them and choose the ones that actually relate to the culinary profession, and prove worthy based on overall research.

Our work isn't done until the food we have prepared is arranged on plates or platters and ready to be presented to the diner. In traditional classical cuisine, until well after the middle of the twentieth century, the normal practice in fine dining establishments was to send the food on platters and in casseroles and other serving dishes to the dining room, where it would be transferred to dinner plates by the serving staff, sometimes after carving or portioning. The chefs who developed nouvelle cuisine, however, wanted to control the appearance of the food down to the last detail and so began to arrange food on the dinner plates in the kitchen. Since that time, many styles of plating have come and gone, as chefs have devoted much attention to the appearance and arrangement of the food on the dinner plates. chefcertification.com |

To be successful in the food-service industry, cooks need more than the ability to prepare delicious, attractive, and nutritious foods. They also must have a talent for organization and efficiency. In every kitchen, a great many tasks must be completed over a given time and by a limited number of workers. No matter when these tasks are done, they must all come together at one crucial point: service time. Only if advance preparation is done thoroughly and systematically can service go smoothly.
Good chefs take pride in the thoroughness and quality of their advance preparation, or mise en place
(meez-on-plahss). This French term, meaning “everything put in place,” is an important and often-heard
expression in North American kitchens because food-service professionals understand its importance to
the success of the establishment.
This course deals with the basic concepts of mise en place as well as specific operations that are
normally part of the mise en place. www.chefcertification.com |

Vegetables were, at one time, abused and neglected, relegated to the minor role of unimportant side dishes, to be taken or left, or not even noticed on the table.
Today, however, lowly vegetables are much more appreciated, not only for their nutritional importance but for the variety, flavor, eye appeal, and even elegance and sophistication they bring to the menu. Modern cooks owe it to themselves and their customers to treat vegetables with understanding, respect, and imagination.
Because they are so perishable, vegetables require extra care from receiving to service. Freshness is their most appealing and attractive quality, and one must be especially careful to preserve it. The goals of proper vegetable cookery are to preserve and enhance fresh flavor, texture, and color, and to prepare and serve vegetables that are not just accepted but sought after. chefcertification.com |

This course will take you on a journey of reflection and hopefully, inspiration. Since you are an educator, the truly difficult work is already being done. We are teachers ourselves and know how many long hours go into preparing just one class. This course has been designed to help you reflect upon your own teaching methods and possibly offer some new ideas for you to add to your teaching palate. We hope to make this course informative as well as engaging. Your time is valuable and we want to offer practical tools for you to use in the classroom. I remember so many classes in graduate school that looked great on paper but offered no tools for me to use back in the classroom. This course is different. You will walk away with practical tools to help focus your lessons and improve student learning. All you need is an open mind, a writing journal, and a classroom in which to test out some new ideas. www.chefcertification.com |

Any teacher can fill a bookshelf with books about education. Any teacher can study lists of guidelines, standards, principles, and theories. The best teachers and the worst teachers can ace exams in their undergraduate and graduate classes. The difference between more effective teachers and their less effective colleagues is not what they know. It is what they do.
This course is about what great teachers do that sets them apart. Clarifying what the best educators do, and then practicing it ourselves, can move us into their ranks. This course is not meant to prescribe a narrow set of instructions. Instead, it frames the landscape of school from the perspective of great teachers. What do they see when they view their classrooms and the students in them? Where do they focus their attention? How do they spend their time and energy? What guides their decisions? How can we gain the same advantages? www.chefcertification.com |
