Lots of good reminders for seasoned food service professionals

August 5, 2025

Getting recertified is a chore. This actually does make it a bit easier, especially than sitting in a class all day. One recommendation is to hit pause on the screens with a lot of information or lists. You’ll want to absorb the information before the presentation automatically moves on and you may not want to watch the whole screen again.
