The course only took about an hour and a forty-five minutes and was a reasonable price. It was informative and helped me understand food safety practices in a restaurant context better.
I rather read than watch it
Enjoyed the learning and reviewing.
it was good process and learning experience
it was okay
So many things I was doing without knowing why, now I got to understand the reason why.

it was a great way to learn
It was good
It was lengthy..get some sleep and sugar before you start, but straightforward and to the point-thank you. I would like to know what my pass score was..what percentage. Only that.
It helped me to learn several factors about food contamination and the hygiene one should use when using food to prepare.
Glad went with them. The site was easy to navigate and the course was very detailed.
I wish the exam was less questions, just add the main one. But test was easy on my side.
