Testimonials from Certified Food Scientists “As an employer looking for people from time to time, I think the CFS is a great opportunity to say that from an independent source these people have the capabilities to meet my needs and will be able to perform in that position. It’s a great way to help screen employees to see if they actually have that strong science background to be able to help deliver in the position I’m looking to fill.” Linda Perucca, CFS, Associate Director, RD&Q Intellectual Property Strategy and Global Training, Mondelēz International

  4. Testimonials from Certified Food Scientists “What a great feeling to know that my practical knowledge and commitment to lifelong learning of food science has been rewarded. I strongly urge other scientists who work in academia, the government, or for the food industry, to apply for the CFS as an indication of your skill and knowledge of food science.” Guy A. Crosby, Ph.D., CFS Author of The Science of Good Cooking Science Editor, America’s Test Kitchen Adjunct Associate Professor, Harvard School of Public Health
