A great refresher

July 5, 2025

I’ve worked in the food industry on and off since I was a teenager. I took this course to start my own business. While I knew majority of this course through hands on exposure, it was a great way to refresh things like food borne illnesses and facility equipment. It is a course that needs to be prioritized on time, but it’s super easy to access from a link at home.
