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 training was clear and professional the only thing I would have to make it better is a way to tell how far you are into the course, if you are on a time line it would be nice to know how much you have left.
This course is imperative to any individual working within the restaurant industry. And extremely helpful to those working within their own kitchens.
It was hard at first but I only made it so by moving to fast but I hope I pass
Very informative
I really enjoyed this course because it’s well-organized and easy to follow. What I appreciate the most is how interactive it is, which makes learning dynamic and engaging. The practical exercises and activities helped me understand the concepts better and retain the information more effectively.
As a suggestion, it would be great to have a summary or a quick review quiz at the end of each module. This would help reinforce the key points and ensure all the information has been absorbed.
Overall, I’m very satisfied with the experience.
I’m the best in the world thank you thank you next gordon ramesey

HELPED IN WAY I CAN EXPLAIN
fue todo UN retro que al final logre
todo estubo excelente El curso
It’s easely to lern
Gave me some good points to pass on my team and myself. Easy to follow and not to dragged out on the info.
The course was not painful. It was appropriate in length and in content.
The training was pretty straight forward and understandable. The only issues I had were you can’t rewind the video, only restart the entire clip which means if you missed one detail you have to sit through the entire clip again for that one moment. Another issue I had was certain modules would have severe delay from the audio to video, and refreshing the page did not help the issue.
Lengthy
Everything was knowledgeable
This was a really good course, I have taken several and I really appreciate how this one went through everything and the quizzes at the end of each segmant.
I really enjoyed taking this course I truly learned so much more
In the restaurant business nd hope this helps in my future
I enjoyed this course

Very useful
Wish closed captioning would stay on when you changed modules and did not have to be turned back on every time.
Section 3.2 Part 1 is missing. It just plays Part 2 instead. I have serious doubts about all the 5 star reviews at this point.
Lengthy and tedious but I recognize the importance of each category.

Very helpful. Thanks!
it was great information
Very understandable, and enjoyable.
I enjoyed watching the videos it helped me understand and know about the food industry and the people safety’s.
Very concise, clear and current material, that moved at a good pace to help retain information, but not bore me and lose my attention. Well recommended.
a majority of the course did not have any audio and the closed captioning needs to be turned on manually every time.
i enjoyed the course it was simple and effective at getting the point across for the things i needed to know to obtain my food handlers certificate
This website is probably the fastest to take your quiz. And for the price you can’t beat it
i loved this training
This course was straightforward, but is delivered in a way that makes it very digestible. Overall, very informative & manages to keep the audiences attention. Nothing hard to understand.
Helpful
Learned everything I needed to know.
I have learn more about food safety and prevention infection for food diseases. It’s very informative and easy to understand every topic.
All good, but consider letting modules to be backed up to allow time to take notes on temps and acronyms. Otherwise very well presented. Thanks!
This was a great course, it laid out everything needed to know while using fun and engaging layouts and interactive prompts along the way!
