Great and easy explanation
I have taken other training classes before but this one was simple, informative and to the point!
Good information. Good refresher. Lay out makes it difficult to fulfill daily duties and keep info fresh in mind for test time. Practice tests may help IF they are similar to test. We shall see
Learned alot and by working in a food establishment currently it flows right with my everyday work habits. Very smooth running online class.
I recently completed the Food Manager Certification course, and it was a very valuable experience. The course covered all the essentials of food safety—everything from preventing foodborne illnesses to proper handling, storage, and regulatory compliance.
What I appreciated most was how clearly the material was presented. The practice exams were especially helpful in preparing me for the certification test, and I felt confident going in. The flexibility to study at my own pace made it easy to fit into my schedule.
I’d recommend this certification to anyone in food service management. Not only does it meet the legal requirements, but it also gives you the confidence to maintain a safe and compliant food environment.
