Passed!
Great materials to keep your business running smoothly. Very infomative and easy to understand.
This course was fun, interactive, and easy to understand. I like the videos and cartoons provided because they were not like other traditional course videos. They provided great information while, staying interesting to look at.
The course was engaging and fun while also learning some very important rules that we should follow.
A few typos(or.. grammatical errors?) but very succinct and informative.
Thank you.
This course was very easy to follow. Every module was simple to understand
It would be nice to be able to scroll back or rewind the videos during the courses. I was handwriting notes and would have to either pause very often or rewatch a whole video just to get one detail i missed towards the end.
Using this website was quick and easy, found it on our local health website and was able to purchase and take the course immediately.
Easy and simple. I like the video explanation.
Ive done these twice before and this one was by far the best. Easy to fallow along and not monotonous. Some times its too much information in these courses but that was a perfect and well informed amount of information.
Training was great it covered every important topic is a clear and cohesive way
I learned a lot about the food industry and the practices and habits I need to handle food safely. The overall course was very engaging and didn’t feel boring or too long.
