WHY CHOOSE OUR DofE ONLINE COOKING COURSE?
We are proud to be an Approved Activity Provider (AAP) for The Duke of Edinburgh's Award. This means our cookery courses meet all the requirements for your DofE Skills Section, ensuring a fun and meaningful experience for every participant.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
Our cookery courses are online, allowing you to work from home at your own pace. You'll follow a detailed recipe worksheet alongside a supporting video, with a dedicated tutor available to assist you with any questions. After completing each recipe, simply upload a few photos and your feedback through our App or Website before moving on to the next dish. Once you finish the course, your tutor will submit the official DofE Assessor’s Report required to complete your DofE Skills Section.
WHICH COOKERY COURSE SHOULD I BOOK?
We offer 5 different cookery courses, each lasting 3 months, featuring a balance of savoury and sweet dishes. You can combine them to create a 6, 12, or 18-month programme. If you’re just starting out or have little cooking experience, we recommend Course 1. Courses can be mixed and matched depending on which dishes or skills you’d like to learn.
