Customers' using Caterers Campus

I would highly recommend Caterers Campus online learning platform, Bidfood fully understand challenges we are facing in the care sector, they have been helping my catering team by providing variety of courses tailored to our business, absolutely fantastic training experience, and not to mention the great support.
Westward Care Ltd.
Over the past year we have been accessing the Catering Campus for our chefs. This has made a huge difference to the chefs as many come into Care without any previous understanding of the adaptations they need to make for our residents. This is a very unique training platform covering the basics and we have included on all our chefs Learning Pathways and their Induction. This is the first place I have found tailored training for chefs in health and social care. I would highly recommend to other Care providers.
