Ice Cream School

Ice Cream School was started in the summer of 2020 following the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Founder and instructor, Chad Hartley, saw the need for individuals who were looking to start their own frozen dessert business, but had no where to turn to for immediate knowledge and resources.

Ice Cream School is intended to help people who have dreams of owning their own ice cream shop get started and be successful. We are also here for those people looking to further their education and gain valuable knowledge in business operations in order to be even more successful in their business.

At Ice Cream School not only will you learn how to make ice cream, but just as importantly, we will teach you how to actually be successful financially in the ice cream business. Owner, Chad Hartley has started and sold several companies in different industries and will help guide you through everything you need to know to get started as well as how to avoid the pitfalls of new business owners. We will quickly weed through all of the misinformation that may be looming out there on the internet about starting an ice cream business.

Ice Cream School is located in the beautiful area of Boise, Idaho. While most other similar courses you’ll have to travel East of the Mississippi. Boise, Idaho has routinely been heralded as one of the best places to live in the United States! Come, stay a few days, learn all there is to know about starting an ice cream business and enjoy the beautiful surroundings of Idaho. If you’ve never been here before, be careful, you may never want to leave!
