Subsidised training via the TUCO Academy
The TUCO Academy provides training opportunities for all those working in public sector - not just those in the catering department. The Foundation offers grants for employers to allow subsidised training for their staff. The Academy can deliver this training to your business, or conduct e-learning. We also provide study tours - educational trips to various locations to study best practice - and free-of-charge allergen and food safety training.
