HACCP – Food Safety for Retail Food Establishments – 16hrs
Course Description
Accredited by the International HACCP Alliance, this course presents the characteristics and application of Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Points (HACCP), a risk prevention management methodology that applies appropriate science and technology to plan, control, and document safe food processes in a food facility, consistent with the FDA’s desire to implement a voluntary HACCP program.
The course introduces HACCP’s principles and concepts. The HACCP approach begins by identifying biological, chemical, and physical hazards associated with facility construction, equipment, employees, food, and supplies and then explains the scientifically validated hazard control procedures that prevent, eliminate, or reduce hazards to levels that protect public health.
First Accredited HACCP Course for Retail Establishments
Our 16 hour HACCP training course is the first accredited nationwide HACCP course for retail food establishments – such as restaurants, mobile food vendors, bakeries, fast food chains, cafes, caterers, and hotel kitchens.
The HACCP for Retail Food Establishments course is accredited by the International HACCP Alliance and teaches the theories and practices of HACCP. Once learners have successfully completed the course, they will understand how HACCP is applied through Active Managerial Control (AMC) to establish a functional food safety management system.
