The Personal Chef Home Study Program - Career Edition is the most complete and comprehensive correspondence course ever developed for the Personal Chef industry. It represents the culmination of 20 years of real-world experience from thousands of successful Personal Chefs.

The foundation of the Home Study Program is the Professional Personal Chef Reference Manual. The authors of this manual, David MacKay and Susan Titcomb-MacKay, are the acknowledged creators of the personal chef service concept and the founders of the personal chef service industry. With more than 500 pages of information, this manual is organized in an easy-to-understand format covering all aspects of a personal chef service in detail. The Professional Personal Chef Reference Manual has become the "bible" of the Personal Chef industry. That’s why successful Personal Chefs use the Professional Personal Chef Reference Manual to establish successful personal chef services in the shortest time possible.

With the Professional Personal Chef Reference Manual, the Marketing and Selling Audio CDs and the included Essential Recipes, and MenuMagic Lite software, the Home Study Program is a comprehensive instructional package created to help you start a successful personal chef service. The course can be completed in as little as two weeks or you can study at your own pace. Upon completion, you will have the knowledge necessary to begin serving clients as a Professional Personal Chef. Successfully completing the three on-line tests results in a Personal Chef diploma, which is one requirement to become a Certified Personal Chef.  USPCA Certification is not a direct result of this program.

Testimonials

"I wasn’t sure if this program and training would be effective as a Home Study situation, but the program exceeded my expectations. The training material was very comprehensive and the culinary review was excellent. Students will invest significant time to complete this course (80+ hours for me). This is not like other “light-weight” programs. The Home Study program met my needs at a time when going to one of your campus locations wasn’t an option for me."
