Here’s what our learners have to say about the course:

Really useful to do a classroom course at No2 Pound Street

01/02/2024

Really useful to do a classroom course at No2 Pound Street. The cheese tasting and making worked very well in a group and to get the input from James Grant added a depth to the information that you may not get if doing a self study course. There was a lot to take in, and i felt at the time it was a bit rushed, however the online material provided an excellent reference for the items covered live, which could then be revisited at your own pace

Geoff

This was a fantastic course, which described comprehensively all the important topics

13/01/2023

This was a fantastic course, which described comprehensively all the important topics related to cheese making while also providing good focus on the tasting of different cheese and explaining professional ways to assess cheese from an organoleptic point of view and record scores. The level 2 course provides a really good balance between online resources and face to face training sessions. The training was delivered by Patrick and Tracey and their knowledge, skills and expertise played a crucial part in making this a very informative and enjoyable course. Highly recommended!
