It was a great course learning a little bit more than I already knew
I think AAA is a fun way to get your food handlers license.
Loved it
it was great
I feel like I learned a lot about cross contamination and foodborne illnesses. Although some of the scenes were a little too graphic for my taste. I probably shouldn’t have been eating while taking this course.
This was nice and easy to reivew and understand.
very easy to understand
No issues, easy but too many modules.
Great course!
This mandatory training is made so much easier simply because most of the information is provided and taught via animated training videos instead of simply reading pages upon pages of information. Some of the most important info is color-coded, which makes remembering categories much easier to do come quiz time. There are even “mini-quizzes” spread throughout the modules, just to make sure that some of the most important info is being retained. This is probably the most enjoyable mandatory training I’ve had to do in my 9 years of restaurant work. Thanks so much!
The course was good. I like that it involved more than just read and listen. The exam needs someone to edit the questions as some were poorly written. A few questions seem to have more than 1 right answer. I do not know if that is intentional.
I enjoyed this course and how easy it was to follow along. It gave a lot of great information and provided me with the knowledge needed.
