Participants must directly supervise front-line cooks. Tuition and books are paid by Basic American Foods, the association's industry sponsor for this educational series.
Participants cover their own air or ground transportation.
All participants are housed in single rooms at the CIA Guest House on campus. Breakfast and lunch are included in the tuition.
