There were times I would nearly finish the module or think it was done and click next. I was locked out of the next one, but if I went back, I did not like that I had to re-watch it all over again.
Easy simple course
Good information to review, and to find. Some was good to review, some was caught my attention. Overall, good experience

Me encanta el curso que he tomado de cómo manejar los alimentos y cómo estar alerta en la preparación de alimentos y el cuidado a tomar para que èste no sea peligroso para el consumo del mismo. Y en cuanto a la limpieza adecuada para que todos puedan disfrutar de una comida saludable y sin riesgos de alguna contaminación.

I liked the way the course is organized. It is easy to follow, and the review questions are a good way to gage my retention of the subject matter.
This was a great experience
The course was very informative, great pace, and it was just enough time!
Overall the training was very informative and helpful. The only criticism I have is the pacing of the course, I do not like how slowly the narrator speaks and I wish there was an option to simply read the information instead
Easy to understand, great practice questions, personable to the extent that it can be while providing necessary information.
The content is thorough and easy to learn
