Caterer

See what our students have to say about their Penn Foster programs...

I've always wanted my own catering business, and even though I know how to cook and store foods, I learned so many new things from this program. I learned about every aspect - from getting deposits and billing, to heat distribution on stoves and sizes of pots to use for greatest effectiveness. It was very thorough!

I was already catering part-time and I have now expanded to a restaurant open daily for lunches, plus catering. The Penn Foster program helped me to better my growing business. The program is easy to follow and you can progress at your own pace. My husband is currently taking the Penn Foster Freelance Writer Program and learning things he never realized. Thank you very much.

I chose Penn Foster because I'm a single parent. It was most convenient for me, because I didn't have to go off to school or quit my job. Any way you look at life, everybody must eat. Catering is the place to start a new career. I have been working in food service for 10 years now. This program helped me to become adept at planning, coordinating and timing the sequence of steps needed to prepare food without overcooking or waste. Penn Foster also helped me to utilize my skills in preparing and cooking a variety of foods in large quantities, using standard or revised recipes.

Results may vary. Although many Penn Foster students have been very successful, the positive results achieved by one student may not be indicative of all students' experiences.
