A lot of things to remember like cooking temps, pathogens, etc. Wish there was a training more geared toward mobile food trailers and less restaurant.
Gave me a foundation to build on
Very insightful course!
In my personal opinion I had no problem with the information as it was readily presented, my issue was with several videos presented there was no option to turn on closed captioning of the narration which I found irritating taking the test at work with ambient noise in the bathroom. also not bolding keywords for a negative question did trip me up. If that how the questions are presented during the real exam, I myself will be more careful.
Very Informative. Good information for anyone in the food industry.
great presentation

Overall this training does the job. However, the description read that it was 1.5 hours, which is most certainly not the case. I didn’t time it, but I’m guessing it was closer to 3 hours. The quiz sections are a little clunky and sometimes there are questions to material that isn’t covered until the next session, but maybe that’s by design.
It was well done and will help me out in the future.
Modules are slightly buggy, but refreshing and redoing them fixed my issue.
It was a great class and very educational
this test covers all bases. I feel better prepared.
This review was very informational on how to safely and correctly handle food.
Love this course because I know about all food safety guidelines.
Great to learn
This course was informative and extremely detailed. Parts of it were a bit repetitive though.
It is very informative and educational to learn how to handle foods in a safe manner. It is knowledgeable to us in everday life.
I thought the courses and info were great. I don’t know much about any food management other than basics to help pass inspections. It was to the point and covered well.
Very informative
