The American Cheese Society (ACS) held the inaugural Certified Cheese Professional Exam (CCPE) in Raleigh, NC on Wed., Aug. 1, immediately before the Annual ACS Conference & Competition.
The only exam of its kind, the CCPE was established by ACS to encourage improved standards of cheese knowledge and service, similar to the requirements for a sommelier in the wine industry. Those who pass the examination will earn the title of ACS Certified Cheese Professional(tm), or ACS CCP(tm), and must renew their certification every three years.
