You know many many courses within the Rouxbe portfolio qualify for continuing education hours ceh's through the American culinary Federation Education Foundation. This is the body within the ACF that allows for certifications such as certified culinarian or certified sous chef or certified executive chef many, like I said many Rouxbe courses qualify for some number of hours including Forks overnights, but our longer programs like our plant-based professional program our Cooks professional program, you know actually give you enough hours. To provide most if not all of the related instruction required for the ACF for certification. So in those examples there might be some additional courses that you have to take that are acf-approved through them in particular their sanitation their nutrition and their food service supervision course. Those are the three that they usually tack on on top. And of course there's a certification exam that you have to pay for and have administered separately through the ACF that would be part of that certification. But if that's something that you're you're pursuing and you want to talk to someone in more depth about we have people on our team who are expert. So if you want to send us an email into the support Channel, you know kind of with your detail your specific let us know kind of what your professional goals are and your timeline really can probably better address that for you, but in short lots and lots of programs qualify just becomes a matter of how many hours and then what else do you also need to do? with the ACF to qualify for the certification.
