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.

This course for Food Handlers was very informative and the material was presented well. It made good use of graphics and went at a pace that was not too fast.
I like the modules and the exam. It was straightforward and knowledgeable.
The website was easy to use. I was able to complete all the modules and the test within a couple of hours. I would recommend for anyone needing to get their food handler’s certificate.
IT was good.
🙂
Rally great course it was easy to follow and made the material much easier to understand
This food handler course was a fantastic experience. The content was clear, well-structured, and easy to follow. I learned a lot about food safety, and the information provided was practical and directly applicable to my work. I highly recommend this course to anyone who needs to get certified. It was a great use of my time, and I feel much more confident in my food handling skills now.
Great class but don’t know my score just that I passed. Also, at this point do not know if I receive a card or certificate or anything.
The course was very easy to follow and gave a lot of good information
I passed
very informative and I really enjoyed learning through this course.
Thank you!
I really enjoyed reviewing all of your amazing material again.
Very good training. The information was informative and to the point!!
Fácil y rápido desde la comodidad de mi casa.
Too many times, it would not allow me to progress even though I completed and would not move forward
Thank you for the useful information. I enjoyed the guide. The exam was straightforward. The whole process was pleasant.

The content is thorough and easy to learn
Great information
The course was very interesting! the modules were very informative.
Well explained and very comprehensive, definitely would recommend for anyone new or well experienced.
would take again
I think the way the videos are made and how the information is presented at this curse makes it very easy for you to catch everything very easily. Thank you!
This course does take time, but it is also the most comprehensive on line course I have taken.
Recommend taking this course over a period of a few weeks to make the most of the information.
is a great course. I learned enough to run my business, and it was a good experience
painless
Found the course to be informative and easy to use.
great course, highly recommend
This was a pretty good course, learned new things and reviewed the basics. I think it’s important all food serving places hold a food manager license because of protocols that could be forgotten and a reminder doesn’t hurt anyone. One thing though, if the website developers could make it where we can move back and forward on each slide that would be very helpful. Besides that I find that the course is neatly put together and the review after every topic is good.
good class
Even though all these information is very dense, the way videos are made in sections and interactions are a better way to study. Hopefully I would only need one take on the exam.
Everything is really well-structured information is very clear and easy to understand I would definetly recommend this to all of my friends.

While the finishing page is true, “Mandatory training is never fun,” I was actually pleasantly surprised at the quality of this course. I had been through something similar for my food handler’s license, but I recall that course being really awful (lots of mock conversations between a new employee and her new manager in the style of “Dick and Jane”: see Spot run! Run Spot, run!), but this RBS Alcohol training was both informative and concise! I learned quite a lot about the more technical aspects of the laws surrounding alcohol service, as well as good recommendations to improve my future interactions with customers. Five stars!
Confusing , slow, kept Disappearing from my screen- often froze so I had to keep going back to listen multiple times praying that it would advance to the next section. Not straight forward or clear at all. I will go out of my way to tell other servers NOT to use your training course. I would give no stars if I could. You should refund my money for this miserable experience

I didn’t like that you had to wait until the “Completed Module” message popped up before hitting the next module button. Other than that it was easy.
I was very impressed with the Training Modules presented by AAA Food Handler. The photos and narrative really helped me to understand and I would recommend them !
Easy way to learn and being knowledgeable before working into food environmental area.
Great course. Straight to the point.

Contains specific, easy-to-understand information on food handling.

I like work at factor 75
great a bit long but great
Great course!
informational
This course broke down each section into manageable chunks. This allowed me time to go at my own speed and take notes if needed. The reviews after each section helped me gage my understanding of each topic so I could go back and refresh if needed.
