Training was very Convenient and Thorough!
Na
good
Good Course full of lots of good information
I took this course in order to start a food vendor business in the state of Virginia. I like that it was very convenient, covered all the bases without giving me information overload.
which we could skip the parts we know an learn more of what we need to not more about …. other then that was ok
I wish a class could be more directly pertaining to food trucks.
Pay attention.
Some of the bullet point details moved too fast to take notes. All and all, very informative
Quizzes, etc… seemed to do a good job of keeping me on track and locking in some of the important info.

the fact that this test is now required for all alcohol servers regardless if you’re only serving beer and wine in California should be free. These companies should not be gaining profits for something that is required.
Great job breaking up the modules. Love that you can stop and start the training.
great course
