厨师Heidi Hedeker，美国仅有的169个认证西点大师之一，是肯代尔大学的第二位认证西点大师。
芝加哥——2012年11月27日，肯代尔大学非常高兴宣布西餐西点学院烘焙和糕点讲师、助理教授Heidi Hedeker荣获美国烘焙零售商协会（RBA，Retail Bakers of America）授予的认证西点大师（CMB，Certified Master Baker）证书。她是肯代尔大学第二位获此殊荣的教师。
Hedeker最近获得的荣誉使她成为美国仅有的169名认证西点大师之一。除了Hedeker，另一位认证西点大师烘焙和糕点讲师Melina Kelson-Podolsky（2008年获得认证西点大师证书）也在肯代尔授课。
认证西点大师必须具备在各种烘焙环境下工作的高超专业技能，以及经营和管理全线独立西点房或超市内商务西点专柜的技术和管理能力。除了高品质烘焙产品的基本条件以外，卫生、食品管理、零售和推销都必须达到设立的严格标准，这些严格的条件使获得CMB称号成为烹饪界最具挑战性的一件事情。
Hedeker在芝加哥西北部的家族产业格莱斯顿公园西点房（Gladstone Park Bakery）工作长大。从罗德岛（Rhode Island）普罗维登斯（Providence）约翰逊威尔士大学（Johnson & Wales University）获得最高荣誉毕业后（包括在瑞士的西点实习）她开始在芝加哥瑞士酒店（Swissôtel）担任西点助理厨师，开始了自己的专业职业生涯。随后，她开了Alliance Bakery西点店，被评为Wicker Park（维克公园）“2000年最佳零售商“（“Best Retailer of the Year-2000”）。
Hedeker于2004年加入肯代尔大学教师团队。她曾在芝加哥大学（University of Chicago）获得社会工作硕士学位，自从2009年开始，她就代表肯代尔大学在芝加哥之光城市农场（Chicago Lights Urban Farm）进行志愿工作和授课，从2011年开始在农场的咨询局工作。此外，Hedeker还与伊利诺伊州最大和历史最悠久的心理健康提供商Thresholds合作，在其“妈妈”项目——一个烘焙疗法课程中帮助新妈妈们解决人际关系问题。同时，她还帮助芝加哥房产机构（Chicago House Agency）进行工作疗法项目，帮助受工作困扰的个人学习新技能，使他们能够找到并保住食品服务行业中有意义的工作。
院长Renee Zonka（RD, CEC, CHE）表示：“我代表肯代尔大学的管理人员以及西餐西点学院的全部教职员工表示，我们对厨师Hedeker成为认证西点大师感到极度自豪。如今，由于厨师Hedeker的极高天赋和对烹饪教学工作的孜孜奉献，以及帮助他人获得个人和专业成长的非凡工作，肯代尔大学在提供专业食品服务培训课程上更加卓越和受世人认可。”
RBA成立于1918年，是一个非盈利贸易协会，致力于烘焙零售行业的成功。RBA认证提高了专业西点师带给市场的专业标准、知识、技能和能力，同时增加了认证西点师和装饰师的工作机会和收入。更多信息，请访问： www.retailbakersofamerica.org/certification-program。
