The class was helpful. The computerized voice was not super pleasant but it got the job done I suppose.. It is very bad practice to demand a review prior to taking the test. I might have given it 5 stars but as I am only 1/2 complete, I could not offer a true opinion.
The course was quite informative & very thorough throughout.
The training covers the entire process, functions & duties of a food manager/food establishment owner.
It’s well known, Food can easily & seriously harm people & worse!…
I love how this course is very focused on reminding the student of that fact!..
Repeatedly brining focus back to the seriousness of not properly controlling foods.
I’ve already paid for the Allergens course also,
It’s not required for my area but I like the extra added safety of being informed.
My wife and daughter will be taking the food handler course also as they will be helping in our food business.
I 100% recommend this course for all your needs in food & safety training….
Customer service is a huge aspect these days with outsourcing jobs..
I have nothing but positive comments for the agents who I did speak with for general questions pertaining to the courses I trained in….

I understand laws and info can be boring but there are ways to present in an interesting way. This was really difficult to get through, it was dry and boring. I usually don’t have any issues with stuff like this.

I enjoyed watching the videos it helped me understand and know about the food industry and the people safety’s.
Very concise, clear and current material, that moved at a good pace to help retain information, but not bore me and lose my attention. Well recommended.
a majority of the course did not have any audio and the closed captioning needs to be turned on manually every time.
i enjoyed the course it was simple and effective at getting the point across for the things i needed to know to obtain my food handlers certificate
This website is probably the fastest to take your quiz. And for the price you can’t beat it
i loved this training
This course was straightforward, but is delivered in a way that makes it very digestible. Overall, very informative & manages to keep the audiences attention. Nothing hard to understand.
Helpful
Learned everything I needed to know.
I have learn more about food safety and prevention infection for food diseases. It’s very informative and easy to understand every topic.
All good, but consider letting modules to be backed up to allow time to take notes on temps and acronyms. Otherwise very well presented. Thanks!
This was a great course, it laid out everything needed to know while using fun and engaging layouts and interactive prompts along the way!
informative and kept my interest
Food Manager was great.
