Frequently Asked Questions
How does the online course, Vegan Cuisine for the Commercial Kitchen, work?Students are sent a lesson composed of four parts: 1) eBook, 2) Supplemental Reading, 3) Quiz, and 4) Practical Assignment. After reading the eBook and supplemental reading assigned from other hard copy texts that come with the course, online videos, demos, and/or articles, the student answers the 10-question quiz within the eBook and clicks “submit” to send it back to the instructor. It is graded and comments, along with the Practical Assignment, are returned to the student. The student proceeds to do the Practical Assignment contained in another eBook format and upon completion, sends the eBook back to the instructor. The instructor reviews the finished work and sends a letter of observations and guidance to the student along with Lesson 2 or 3 or 4 and so on.
