Yes. The AAA Food Handler Food Manager Certification is accredited by the ANAB and meets standards set by the Conference for Food Protection (CFP), making it valid across Pennsylvania and nationwide.

Selecting a program accredited by the ANAB ensures that your certification meets nationally recognized food safety standards, helping you gain trust and compliance recognition across Pennsylvania and beyond.

Yes. The AAA Food Handler program meets food safety requirements outlined in CFR § 483.60, making it an approved choice for healthcare kitchens, long-term care facilities, hospitals, and dietary service operations throughout Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania food managers must adhere to regulations modeled after the FDA Food Code, ensuring they maintain safe food handling, sanitation practices, and supervisory oversight in food establishments statewide.

In Pennsylvania, compliance is verified by requiring food establishments to employ Certified Food Protection Managers who have earned certification through an ANAB accredited program, following FDA Food Code principles.

Pennsylvania’s food safety regulations closely follow the FDA Food Code, requiring food establishments to have at least one Certified Food Protection Manager to oversee proper food handling and sanitation practices.

Yes. With AAA Food Handler, you can complete both the food manager training and the certification exam 100% online. The exam is remotely proctored to maintain security and meet ANAB accreditation standards.

Once you pass, you can immediately download and print your official Food Manager Certificate. You will then be recognized as a Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM) under Pennsylvania’s food safety compliance rules.

The Gold Package offers comprehensive training and exam preparation. The Diamond Package includes a one-time free retest for added security. If you feel confident without training, the Exam Only package is ideal, while the Training Only option is perfect for those who prefer to study before scheduling an exam.

Yes. Our Group Registration system allows business owners and managers to enroll multiple employees, track their training progress, monitor exam results, and manage certificates—all from one convenient dashboard.

In Pennsylvania, food establishments licensed by the state must have at least one staff member who holds a certified food protection manager (CFPM) credential. This certification is essential for demonstrating knowledge of proper food safety practices.

Exceptions apply to certain low-risk operations,such as those selling only sealed, prepackaged items—and some nonprofit organizations.

The certified manager doesn’t need to be present during all business hours but must be reachable at all times the facility is operating. Each certified individual may only be designated for one location.

To earn certification, candidates must pass an exam from an ANSI-CFP accredited program, like the one provided by AAA Food Handler.

It’s also important to know that several counties in Pennsylvania oversee their own food safety manager regulations. These include:

  • Allegheny County

  • Bucks County

  • Chester County

  • Montgomery County

  • Philadelphia County

  • State College Borough

If your business falls under one of these jurisdictions, be sure to consult the local health department to confirm accepted training providers and specific guidelines.

AI training courses

October 17, 2025

The training materials were fair. The AI voice had very poor diction, mispronouncing a few words and getting the emphasis wrong in several sentences. The negative effect was very noticeable, to me. The exam was significantly worse. At least 5 questions has contradictory or poorly written answer pools. Is it really so difficult to hire an extra HR generalist to write training courses?

Mostly Video Training Modules means More Retention

November 3, 2025

This mandatory training is made so much easier simply because most of the information is provided and taught via animated training videos instead of simply reading pages upon pages of information. Some of the most important info is color-coded, which makes remembering categories much easier to do come quiz time. There are even “mini-quizzes” spread throughout the modules, just to make sure that some of the most important info is being retained. This is probably the most enjoyable mandatory training I’ve had to do in my 9 years of restaurant work. Thanks so much!

Good course, the exam needs some editing.

November 3, 2025

The course was good. I like that it involved more than just read and listen. The exam needs someone to edit the questions as some were poorly written. A few questions seem to have more than 1 right answer. I do not know if that is intentional.
