Very easy training and also learned some new information
The training was full of facts and informative, common sense, a must take if handling food for the public.
The training was very informative, put how you move around a kitchen to perspective. Training was well done, informative, and had a lot of common sense applied to it.
This is a great training method. The information is broken up into manageable pieces. Easy to understand and very thorough.
This course was quite informative and easy to work through.
Love this training course. It was very useful and helped me learn food safety.
The course itself is fine however the test is where I take issue. A possible answer for one of the questions is, “bacteria __20 minutes__ can multiple every day.” This not grammatically correct and is confusing. At least two questions/answers had horrible wording and should certainly be reviewed. Afterall, we’re paying for an accredited course, grammar shouldn’t be an obstacle.
This course was simple and quick to understand.
I found it very comprehensive and educational.
Very informative
It was very helpful and I learned a lot from these courses.
Super informative and helpful.
Pretty straight forward.
