Course is easy, but you must pay attention

September 10, 2025

This is a very easy course to take. But the test includes even some small minor details. Pay attention to anything that has a number associated, and remember those types of contamination. You will get asked. I don’t think the test misses anything. So watch the course carefully to remember the details.

Excellent Food Training Tutorial

April 18, 2025

This food saftey course brushes over the most important parts with the different food processes of receiving, processing, maintaining, and serving. As a lot of the information has been common sense, it is a good reminder to relearn as it’s important to make sure the food is safe for the customers to eat. I did also learn a lot of valuable information about the different food temperatures I didn’t know before taking the course. Overall, I would recommend this to every food manager even if not all the sections apply to them.

The food handlers course was easy to follow and gave clear and precise information. I was able to follow along without any issues. I also appreciated that I was able to sign out when I needed to step away for other obligations, then return right back where is was in the review process. The test didn’t take long either and based on the review information, was easy to pass.
