The only tricky bit is that the slide needs to be watched all over again if the next module button is pushed too soon. Since it’s pretty sensitive to moving the mouse around, it happened a few times.
Good
Everyone should take this course in order to learn proper personal cooking hygiene.
Thanks
easy to understand

Great course. Easy to follow. Thorough.
Very comprehensive and thorough
Easy to understand and presented in a very good format. Information was thoroughly presented.
Including a playback speed option and limiting it to 1.5x would greatly improve user experience.
Good real detailed and specific got me thinking I was back in elementary
This training was very informative and easy to follow. It was great that you could go at your own pace, especially in my case where I needed to break it up into different times do to my busy schedule. I liked that I could go back to certain points of the video if needed and I could rewatch all together if there were any points I felt like I didn’t fully comprehend while watching. I also appreciate that captions were available! I have a difficult time hearing, so that is a very useful tool for someone like me!
Easy to learn just to bit modules separate
It was long but they had parts that I found helpful and it was good it was just super long that’s all
The entire presentation was helpful in learning everything that has to do with handling food.
