Frequently Asked Questions

How is an ICCA CPD program different from a culinary team building session?

A culinary team building session is for a brand's own internal team (marketing, sales, customer service) building. A CPD program is for external industry chefs, working culinary professionals and food enthusiasts who will use, advocate for and recommend your product in their professional and personal work.

How many chefs can attend a single CPD program?

A standard ICCA CPD session accommodates 20-40 industry chefs. Larger programs can be delivered across multiple sessions. ICCA handles all logistics: participant invitation, confirmation, attendance tracking and certification, you provide the product, we handle the rest.

What types of F&B brands run CPD programs at ICCA?

ICCA has successfully delivered CPD programs for ingredient brands, kitchen equipment manufacturers, food technology companies, FMCG suppliers, and hospitality groups. Any brand that markets to professional chefs, food enthusiasts, or culinary businesses, particularly those seeking chef advocacy and industry adoption, is well suited for an ICCA CPD program.

Can my brand commission an ICCA CPD program tailored to our products?

Yes. ICCA designs bespoke CPD programs around specific product categories — an ingredient, kitchen equipment, a beverage range or a food technology. ICCA's team works with your brand to develop training content, coordinate participant recruitment among the ICCA chef network, deliver the session and provide participant data and certification records.

How does blockchain certification work for ICCA CPD programs?

Each chef who completes an ICCA CPD program is issued a blockchain-authenticated certificate and a digital badge via a verified credentialling platform. The credential is permanently recorded, tamper-proof and independently verifiable by employers, clients or industry bodies, significantly more credible than a standard printed certificate.

What is a CPD program at ICCA Dubai?

A CPD (Continuous Professional Development) program at ICCA Dubai is a structured, day-long chef training session for industry professionals. It combines applied product training, hands-on cooking demonstrations and interactive sessions, led by ICCA's certified Chef Instructors or Brand Ambassador Chefs, and concludes with a blockchain-authenticated certificate for every participant.
