I took the Certificate in Food Cost Control for Quick Service Restaurants at Stanmore School of Business, and it was a solid experience. The course covered a lot of useful topics, like food cost calculation and inventory management. I liked how the instructors used examples from real quick-service restaurants to make the concepts more relatable. The course materials were pretty good, although I thought some of the videos could be more engaging. One thing that really stood out to me was the discussion forum, where I could ask questions and get feedback from the instructors and other students. It was super helpful to get different perspectives on the topics we were covering. Overall, I'd recommend this course to anyone who wants to learn more about food cost control, but maybe don't expect to be blown away by the production quality.
