Food Manager Reviews
4.9
The course is presented with informational videos and helpful questions to guide the process of learning. I found it easy to engage with and you can get many chances to answer the questions correctly. This is my second time reviewing the course as I have forgotten to take the test 2 years ago previously. The price point is still relatively affordable and similar to my last experience with it.
I recommend this course to anyone looking to secure a food manager’s license.

Great format to make sure every guideline is covered and make sure every food manager is doing the right thing at all times.
I was very nervous about taking the course. However when I got started it was a little scary because it was so long. As I started going through the lessons it was great that they had review questions at the end of each lesson.
Having the course online was convenient. I was able to work it around my schedule and move at my own pace. I like that it gave short a short quiz after each segment.
