Un curso muy educativo, y de amplio prospecto de aprendizaje
This course was very easy to access from start to finish. It was very easy to come back into the course after logging out and it was easy to look for all the different modules and course sections.
Great course very informative.
Straight to the point
The videos are to long and some of the wording is hard to see due too the color and size of text. I have already done pathogens stuff before through a vocational education and it covered physical practice of chemical and bio hazard both food and other area’s of pathogens industries and it was easy and not as long of a course since some people can only take in so much at once and memorize the information given to them. Try condensing the material for the course, with the key mandatory points for food industries type job positions and companies. I personally work in a food industry palletizing boxes with prepackaged food were i don’t come in contact with the food but only box and a tape machine. So try to also cover stuff were it’s out side the normal areas for food contamination
