Frequently Asked Questions
Find answers to the most common questions about our courses and how to get started.
Do I need cooking experience to take these courses?
Not at all. We offer courses at all levels—beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Each course is designed to meet students where they are, with clear instructions and foundational techniques explained thoroughly. Many of our students were complete beginners when they started.
How long do I have access to the course materials?
Once you enrol in a course, you have lifetime access to all video lessons, downloadable recipes, and supplementary materials. You can revisit them anytime to refresh your skills or try new techniques at your own pace.
What equipment do I need at home?
Most of our courses require only basic kitchen equipment—a sharp knife, cutting board, pots, pans, and mixing bowls. We don't expect you to have speciality appliances. The course materials include suggestions for budget-friendly alternatives when optional equipment is mentioned.
Are there certificates upon completion?
Yes, each completed course includes a downloadable certificate of completion. This recognises your achievement and can be shared professionally. The certificate includes the course name, completion date, and Wholefoodcookingmaster's official seal.
Can I interact with instructors or other students?
Yes, we maintain an active online community where students can ask questions, share photos of their creations, and receive feedback. Instructors regularly engage with the community, though response times may vary depending on course size and instructor availability.
What if I need to contact you with questions?
You can reach our editorial team at [email protected] or write to us at Park Road 14, Leeds. For course-specific questions, check your course materials first—many answers are in the FAQ sections or you can post in the community forum.
Are the recipes allergen-friendly or adjustable?
Many of our recipes include notes on common allergens and simple substitutions. For example, we show nut-free sauce options alongside cashew-based versions. Each lesson emphasises understanding principles so you can confidently adapt recipes to your dietary needs.
Do courses work for people in different regions of the UK?
Yes, all our classes are designed for UK students and reference commonly available British ingredients and suppliers. We also suggest adaptations for regional availability, and our instructors are familiar with different grocery shopping options across England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland.
