Introducing an exciting new collaboration that brings The Culinary Institute of America (CIA)’s signature professional training to Greece.  The  five-day intensive will take place February 28 – March 3, 2024  and will focus on plant-forward cooking. Participants will learn fundamental techniques and methods for coaxing maximum flavor out of vegetables and fruits, grains, and other ingredients, as they create a number of globally inspired dishes designed to enhance the menus in their businesses.

The program has very limited seats available and accepts professionals with at least 3 years of experience. Candidates are required to provide a brief profile that will be evaluated by the CIA who will make the final selection. Upon completing the program, participants will receive  a certificate of accomplishment, and three (3) Continuing Education Units (CEU’s).

The exclusive culinary program will be hosted at The Westin Resort Costa Navarino. In addition to professional lectures and cooking sessions, the program includes daily morning activities and bespoke experiences designed to immerse participants in the breathtaking surroundings of Costa Navarino and the local area.
