In Delaware, food handler training is strongly recommended to help ensure the safety of food served in restaurants, retail outlets, and other food establishments. Completing training equips you with essential skills to prevent foodborne illnesses, including proper cooking and storage temperatures, avoiding cross-contamination, practicing good hygiene, and sanitizing equipment and surfaces correctly.
Some counties or municipalities may have stricter rules that require a food handler card or additional training. Because requirements can vary, it’s always a good idea to check with your local health department or employer to make sure you’re following the proper regulations.

According to Delaware Food Code §§ 2-102.12 and 2-102.20, the person in charge (PIC) during inspections must be a Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM). In higher-risk establishments, this means that at least one CFPM must be on-site during all hours of operation.
For establishments classified as very low, low, or medium risk by the Delaware Division of Public Health (DPH), a statewide CFPM variance allows for slightly relaxed rules, although training or certification is still required.
To become a CFPM, you must demonstrate your knowledge by passing an exam through an ANSI-accredited and DPH-approved program, such as AAA Food Handler. Because local requirements can differ, it’s always wise to verify rules with your local health department before starting work.
