This website is really good if your trying to get you food handlers certificate, the only bad thing I would have to say is that the AI voice is really annoying and it talks really slow, other than that it is a really good website.
Great experience knowledgeable information
This was an easy process. It was nice to be able to come back to the course and pick up where I left off. I had some audio issues with the course. The chat customer service was prompt and helpful. Use Chrome and use a computer if you can and you will likely not have the issues I did.
