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.
The Food Handler Card verifies that an individual has been trained in proper food safety practices, helping to reduce the risk of foodborne illness and improve hygiene standards in food service operations.
The course is designed to be completed in about 1.5 hours. It’s self-paced, meaning you can start, pause, and return anytime that fits your schedule.
Anyone working with food in restaurants, cafes, catering businesses, or similar roles must complete food handler training to comply with state health regulations. All food handlers—including cooks, servers, hostesses, dishwashers, and cashiers in convenience stores that serve potentially hazardous foods like soups, hot dogs, and other items prepared on-site—should be certified.
Food handler certificates are also recommended for individuals working in roles such as nurse’s aides, certified farmers markets, commissaries, grocery stores, licensed healthcare facilities, mobile support units, public and private school cafeterias, restricted food service facilities, and retail stores. Certification is advised for food facilities that provide internal food safety training to staff involved in food preparation, storage, or service; facilities operating under collective bargaining agreements with food handlers; and government-run institutions at the city, county, state, or regional level used for the confinement of adults or minors.
To earn your Utah Food Handlers Card, you must score at least 75% on the final exam. You’ll be given two opportunities to pass the 40-question test.
The total cost is $22.95, which includes the $15 Utah state permit fee. There are no hidden charges, and both English and Spanish versions are available.
Managers gain tools to track training progress and ensure staff are compliant, which boosts food safety, reduces violations, and promotes workplace efficiency.
To make learning more accessible, the course can be taken in either English or Spanish, allowing team members to complete training in the language they’re most comfortable with.
Educating employees on safe food handling procedures lowers the chances of contamination and complaints, which contributes to a more productive and compliant kitchen environment.
We offer an interactive and state-accredited course with a satisfaction guarantee, bulk pricing, and tools that help owners manage employee progress—all while meeting Utah’s official guidelines.
Utah requires Food Handler courses to be accredited by the ANAB, ensuring the training meets recognized food safety standards. ANAB-accredited programs provide credibility and are more likely to be accepted by local health departments during inspections.
Yes, the course works on mobile devices. For the best experience, use Chrome and switch to landscape mode if needed.

VERY QUICK AND PRETTY EASY.

The videos honestly explained everything so well that the test was pretty easy.
The overall experience, while time consuming, was very straight forward and I am satisfied with my experience
Was it boring? Yeah. But was it to the point? Also yes. This training didn’t drag on and gave clear information on how to handle food in a safe way. I took a star away because some of the questions in the exam were so badly worded I had to decode what they meant. It was only a couple questions but annoying enough to be an issue.
Learned a lot of things on how to prepare food properly.
Was informative and easy to follow
I don’t know what I scored. Did I pass or fail. No email no text with results I have no idea. Besides that it was a good course good job
The course was easily understood due to the explanations provided with each category.

This course was informative but the narrator sounded somewhat like a robot which could be easy to lose focus with.

FatTom si an acronyms that highlights 6 stages bacteria can grow faster in food. These are:
Food – Acidity – Temperature – Time – Oxygen – Moisture.
While all of them are very important to know, for me the stand out one is Temperature. It shows you the diffence between the cooking temperature, the fridge temperature and the danger zone temperature which are some key elemeents to know in order to prevent the growth of bacteria in food.
Comprehensive but easy to follow and understand
It was incredibly hard to stay focused after the 1 hour mark and feel if I didn’t already do food handling training before, I would have struggled with the exam.
It was a good training that was easy to understand and comprehend.
I recently completed the AAA Food Handler Course, and it was an excellent experience! The course was well-organized and easy to follow, with clear explanations of food safety, hygiene, and handling practices. I especially appreciated the practical examples and visual aids, which made it easy to understand important concepts like TCS foods, temperature danger zones, and proper thawing methods.
The interactive quizzes helped reinforce the lessons, and I felt confident applying the knowledge in a real-world kitchen setting. Overall, the course was engaging, informative, and very user-friendly. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to improve their food safety skills and meet certification requirements.
