Annoyingly long and some things do not pertain to everyone, or is common since.

May 30, 2025

I understand most of the things need to be gone over but some of it didn’t need to be taken care of in such a long manner. I feel like a good quarter of what was said was a waste of time or took too long to cover. It took at least an hour to get through the training portion when it was mostly stuff I knew already or didn’t pertain to me. Glad it is very thorough though, I guess. I just feel like it could be shortened or some things could be gone over less.

Please let us take the exam without the training. It takes way to much time for those of us who have taken it multiple times before.

The robo voice was very hard to pay attention to, and if I hadn’t found this site on a government website I would be concerned about the legitimacy of this course.

Visuals are engaging

May 30, 2025

I enjoyed the visuals of the training. It truly leaves an imprint with how food can be unsanitary, cross-contaminated, and unsafe. The over-all training was effective with understanding the cause and effect of food preparation.
