It is very important to choose a spacious and comfortable room where electricity, water supply and other communications will be connected. Since you will be preparing food during the training, make sure you have an air conditioner. Purchase the necessary equipment and inventory (stoves, refrigerator, tables, chairs, knives, spoons, pots, pans, various household appliances, etc.). Decorate the room where the courses will take place. You can also purchase cooking literature. Search for employees If you do not want to conduct trainings on your own, hire a chef with a fairly long experience.
