The International Institute of Culinary Arts (IICA), New Delhi, has long been recognized as a premier culinary education and skill development institution. Over the years, we have proudly collaborated with numerous embassies and corporate entities in India, cementing our reputation as a trusted partner for culinary excellence.
Among our most significant partnerships is our association with the Embassy of Germany. IICA was honored to be appointed as the nodal agency to skill-test cooks from India who had received job offers to work in Germany as Indian cuisine specialists. This prestigious assignment was not only a special milestone for the institute but also a testament to the credibility and global standards we uphold. The responsibility reaffirmed IICA’s position as a leader in culinary education and skill certification.
This successful collaboration with the Embassy of Germany paved the way for many other embassies, corporate offices, restaurant chains, and even airlines to choose IICA as their preferred partner for skill testing and culinary certification. These partnerships reflect the confidence that industry leaders have in IICA’s ability to deliver world-class assessments and training programs tailored to specific requirements.
