Tele-seminar Format--August 25, 2008--What is Kosher? And why is it important to know the laws of Kashruth as a Meeting Planner, Catering or Conference Services Manager?

We’ll answer those questions and many more during our Kosher Catering 101 teleseminar scheduled for Tuesday, September 2nd at 9 am PST. We’ll start at the beginning for everyone who is new to Kosher food - what does it mean to be Kosher, the traditions, preparation and service of Kosher foods; and how to sell Kosher events.

We’ll cover some of the major Jewish holidays like Rosh Hashanah or the Jewish New Year as it is commonly known; and Yom Kippur, the Day of Atonement and explain why that is probably the most important holiday of the Jewish year. Other holidays covered will include Succot, Hanukkah, Purim, Passover, and many more of the holidays of the Jewish year. We’ll talk about the celebrations for birth, weddings and mitzvahs. Checklists for menu planning, weddings, mitzvahs will also be discussed.

Join me on Tuesday, September 2nd for this interesting overview of Kosher catering. We’ll take the unknown out of Kosher and give you the tools to planning more Kosher and Kosher-Style events. If you’re unable to join us on September 2nd, don’t worry. You’ll be able to register for the program and listen to the recording of our session whenever it’s more convenient for you.
