Program Overview
The classes for the CCC program run from January till the end of April. Each of the 4 classes (Cost
Controls, Human Resources, Menu Writing and Nutrition) runs for 15 weeks, hybrid format (in class and
online). Generally the classes are on Monday but that may change based on the availability of
instructors. The costs for these classes are $425.00 per class. These classes are not mandatory, but
recommended, as they teach the student the language of the exams and increase the success rate
significantly.
