Here’s what our Professional Members say about the value of their TKC membership ->

I am relatively new to planning culinary-based education/culinary medicine, even though I have taught an academic nutrition/food science/culinary course for over 10 years. The TKC webinars and continuing education resources have helped my confidence as we start planning culinary medicine/nutrition programming at our institution.

Being able to see what others are doing and having firsthand access to new developments and publications has been valuable. I am able to integrate some of this information into an undergraduate course I teach on Food As Medicine, and also refer my students to the TKC as a potential resource in their future careers.

TKC Professional Member

A connection to other organizations who are carrying out similar work. Through these connections I am able to gain inspiration, insights and see how others are accomplishing the work. It has giving my organization momentum to move our work forward in a meaningful way.
