Education is the best tool to prevent, minimize, or eliminate foodborne illnesses and food hazards.
Training helps reduce or eliminate food safety hazards before they become major issues.
Reducing food safety complaints will create a happier workplace and in turn increase productivity.
Numerous professionals nationwide have already earned and renewed their card with AAA Food Handler — a trusted name in food safety training.
In North Dakota, earning a Food Handler Card requires completing a food safety training course accredited by the ANAB. The course teaches key principles such as food hygiene, proper handling techniques, contamination prevention, and strategies to reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses. It also emphasizes the importance of maintaining a clean and sanitary kitchen environment. This course complies with state regulations and is mandatory for individuals working with food in restaurants, catering companies, and other food service operations.
To receive a North Dakota Food Handlers Card, take and pass a food safety course accredited by the ANAB. Once completed, you’ll receive a recognized card throughout the state.
The Food Handler course is done entirely online and is available 24/7. After finishing the 1.5-hour course, you’ll take a 40-question final exam. You’ll need a score of at least 70% to pass and earn your certificate.
The Food Handler course is perfect for individuals in the food industry, whether you work in a restaurant, café, grocery store, food truck, or concession stand. It’s designed for anyone involved in preparing or serving food.
The Food Handler Course costs just $6.95. Discounts are available for businesses looking to train multiple employees at once.
You can take the Food Handler Certificate in English or Spanish.
No worries—you get two attempts to pass the exam. You’ll have another chance if you fail the first time.
The Food Handler Card is accepted throughout all counties in North Dakota, including significant areas like Cass County.
The Food Handler training helps prevent foodborne illnesses, enhances decision-making in food handling, and ensures proper safety protocols are followed. It also helps businesses reduce complaints and improve workplace morale.

North Dakota does not require food safety training for cottage food producers. However, completing a Food Handler certificate is strongly recommended to ensure safe food handling practices and enhance consumer confidence. The North Dakota Department of Health and Human Services offers resources and guidance on food safety training options.

Muy bueno para el personal que trabaja en los restaurantes
Easy to follow. Rather long.
The final exam had some confusing questions
Re-iterate desire for a re-wind instead of restart button. Also, would’ve liked a short area after every module to practice what I just learned, like a mini quiz.
Wish there was a rewind button instead of a restart, but overall it is still a good website.
The instructor knows the subject-matter. She is also a fantastic trainer.

Was difficult to take notes and go back to certain points made since you could not reverse the video and anytime you missed a point you would have to start the whole section over. Otherwise helpful and informative.
It can be daunting to just think about it. However, breaking it down to bite-sized instructions made this much more doable and convenient.
Fabulous :))
Simple but very interesting
The course was great. It was easy to follow, at the right pace, and engaging.
Appreciate that explanations are given for why it is important to do things in a certain way. Understanding why it is important makes it easier to remember, and makes me more conscientious about doing it that way. There was one question about trichinosis that was asked in a quiz before the topic was covered in the next section.
This course was very informative and easy to follow along. I believe this course will provide all businesses handling food and beverages better overall customer service and safety.
