I really enjoyed taking this course through AAA Food Handler. The course was easy to follow and understand, most of all it was easy to navigate online.
Interesting training on food/kitchen management. I will be supervising a parish kitchen where we bring in vendors and ministries to offer our parishioners and students food throughout the week. Some areas didn’t necessarily apply to our kitchen but overall very informative.
