Education is the best tool to prevent, minimize, or eliminate foodborne illnesses and food hazards.
Training helps reduce or eliminate food safety hazards before they become major issues.
Reducing food safety complaints will create a happier workplace and in turn increase productivity.
Numerous professionals nationwide have already earned and renewed their card with AAA Food Handler — a trusted name in food safety training.
The Delaware Food Handlers Card is awarded after completing a state-recognized food safety training program accredited by ANAB. This course educates food service employees on critical safety practices, including proper food handling, hygiene standards, preventing cross-contamination, minimizing foodborne illnesses, and maintaining cleanliness. It also addresses regulations specific to Delaware. Obtaining this card is essential for individuals working in food preparation, service, or storage roles in restaurants, mobile food units, cafeterias, and similar establishments throughout the state.
There is no difference—Both terms refer to the document you receive after completing a recognized food safety course. Some counties or employers may refer to it as a “card,” but the certificate serves the same purpose—it proves you’ve completed an approved food safety course.
To get started with your Food Handler Certificate, select your state under the Food Handler tab, then click “Purchase English” or “Purchase Spanish.” Create your profile, complete the payment, and you can begin the course immediately.
After completing the course and passing the final assessment, you’ll receive a Delaware Food Handler Certificate. This document verifies that you have been trained in key food safety concepts and practices, and it can be shown to employers or health inspectors when required.
The course takes approximately 1.5 hours to complete. It’s self-paced, so you can log in and out at your convenience.
Once enrolled, you’ll have full access to the Delaware Food Handler Course materials for 3 months for Food Handler and 1 year for Food Manager. That means you can review and study the content whenever it’s convenient for you.
Employers can take advantage of our bulk purchase options with discounted pricing. Once purchased, courses can be easily assigned to staff members. Managers also gain access to a centralized dashboard to track employee progress, manage certifications, and generate detailed reports for compliance and Course oversight.
You’ll have two attempts to pass the final exam at no additional cost. If you fail on your first try, you can review the course material and retake the test when ready.
To get your Delaware Food Handler Card, complete a course accredited by the ANAB. After finishing the course and passing the exam, you’ll receive a valid Food Handler Card accepted across the state
This course is approved and accredited by ANAB to meet Delaware’s food safety standards. It is recognized for use throughout the state, including New Castle, Kent, and Sussex counties, and aligns with all required guidelines for the Food Handler certificate.
Holding a Delaware food handler card shows you how to safely handle, prepare, and serve food. It helps reduce the risk of foodborne illness and ensures you meet state compliance requirements for employment in restaurants and other food service settings.
Non-potentially hazardous foods like baked goods (without cream or custard), jams, jellies, candies, dry mixes, and granola. These must be shelf-stable and not require refrigeration.
The AAA Food Handler Card meets the food safety training requirement for Delaware’s Cottage Food Law, provided the course is accredited by the ANAB. The Delaware Division of Public Health recognizes this certification as meeting the necessary training requirements for cottage food operators.

The Class was very Informative. I just wish I would have gotten the results of the test rather then just that I passed so I would know where I went wrong if I went wrong anywhere.
Good information to know
The modules are very helpful. I learned a lot about food handling.

First I appreciate the statement that this was created by a woman and minority owned entity! A lot of information with lots of details.
The course itself is fine—however, it is not very friendly on mobile formats. The audio sometimes cuts out and you have to restart from the beginning. The “optional” tests are not optional, you do have to complete them before being allowed to schedule your exam. I would have completed these anyway but it was a little annoying to be forced to do them when they’re labeled as optional.
The course was clear , simple to follow and covered exactly what I needed to feel prepared for my Food Manager test. I liked the step by step breakdowns and practical examples.
Good refresher for real kitchen work too!
would like to have heard a more even voice sound was up and down
Lots of learning to do and different things I didn’t know
Informative, and easy to use.
The training was very well done in my opinion and easy to follow.
Very good course.
don’t want to do survey
Very informative and easy course to follow!! I recommend this course to anyone who’s looking to start their business.
Love the convenience of completing the training at my own pace. Some of the quiz questions along the way (checking for understanding as you complete each unit of learning) were not 100% aligned to the content in that unit, but easy to figure out.
Passing this test
Very informative and descriptive. Gives me a great understanding of how a restaurant/ food prep needs to be.

Long but easy

I feel this covers more in details of the requirements and laws of being an alcohol server. Definitely one of the better courses I have taken.

Great and easy

Very easy and informative
It was complete and comperhensive. Not super exicting but did what was supposed to (teach me what I needed for the test).
I noticed that some of the questions asked in a module did not have the information given in that module, but in a later module instead. Course said 1 hour and 30 mins , but is significantly longer.

this course was super informative and so easy to learn. I really enjoyed the modules.
Dumb you should be honest about the length of the video for people with abusive partners
