Our restaurants may be closed and we may be on lockdown, confined to our homes, but we can, at least put the time we have to good use. Online culinary webinars for chefs are a good way to expand your knowledge and reacquaint yourself with others’ opinions.
These are testing times for restaurateurs and chefs with the coronavirus crisis threatening an entire industry, but what we do today will impact how we will emerge from the period of economic inactivity. By learning from our peers and seeing how other restaurants, not only in our own countries, but around the world respond to the coronavirus crisis will help inform the best strategy for reopening or for re-entering the workforce.
Here are a list of free online webinars that can help you define your return-to-work strategy, to build a more sustainable restaurant model, as well as completely online resources for general online learning, improving your skills and techniques.
