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.

I love how everything was simple and to the point the rewind feature would me nice to go back and no have to star over each time
I wish you could back up the recording. You can pause, but if I wanted to hear something twice the only way is to play the whole thing over. The way my memory works is hearing things twice is helpful.
Very thorough and explained everything

I think questions should be straight forward using common sense. No need to words it to sound confusing. When you are on the job, you have to use your basic common sense to make quick decision to make your best judgement to prevent bad things from happening,
course was informative and well formatted.
OK A LITTLE BIT REPETITIVE
Software for phone provided slides that were extremely small font. Otherwise training was good.

I wish the voice was a bit less dull and lifeless: and some of the technical, legal, and medical terms were complex and hard to remember.
