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.
este curso es muy educativo y sobre todo te hace aprender mas sobre la salud y manipulacion de alimentos en lugares y establecimientos de comida, me ayudo mucho en mi comienzo como parte de la cocina y chef agradesco a mi jefe que me dio la oportunidad de tomar este curso y voy aprender mas sobre la cocina y tener una buena manipulacion de alimentos.
Great content!
The course was easy to follow along. Each lesson can be paused or rewatched to take notes.
