We are very proud to have been the creator and developer of the Maggie Beer Foundation Professional Community. An online platform available to the cooks and chefs working in the aged care community who have completed Maggie Beer Foundation Education – a Masterclass or Online Module.
We created a moderated forum to enable Alumni members to discuss topics or hold group discussions, engage with a mentor or peers to ask questions, offer solutions and network within the industry in a secure format.
THE CHALLENGE
The Maggie Beer Foundation wanted to live its mission by facilitating education and collaboration between aged care providers, chefs, dieticians, and speech pathologists, to share knowledge and review recipes that are scalable and or changed for texture modified diets.
