Welcome to the BAKED Academy NDIS Program

At BAKED Academy, we believe the kitchen is one of the best places to learn, connect and grow. Our chef-led NDIS baking and cooking program provides participants with an enjoyable, supportive and hands-on environment where they can build capacity, develop practical life skills, strengthen social connections and work towards greater confidence and independence. Guided by experienced chefs, participants will learn how to prepare a delicious variety of sweet and savoury products while developing useful skills that can be applied at home, in the community and across future learning or employment pathways.
