It was good
I am deeply disappointed with the AAA Food Handler course and would give it no more than a single star. The final exam portion was riddled with errors—ranging from poorly worded questions to outright inaccuracies—which not only caused confusion, but also cast doubt on the credibility and professionalism of the course as a whole. The study material itself was excessively long-winded, lacking in clarity, and failed to present the information in a way that supported true comprehension or retention. The teaching methods employed felt outdated and poorly adapted to an online learning environment; rather than being streamlined or interactive, the instruction was tedious and monotonous, making it difficult to stay engaged. Most notably, the course failed to provide practice questions or opportunities for active learning throughout, which is an essential component of any effective educational program, particularly one focused on safety and compliance. Overall, I found the experience to be frustrating, inefficient, and ultimately unworthy of recommendation. I will absolutely be seeking a more reputable and thoughtfully designed alternative the next time I need to complete food safety certification.
I like it, informative and quick
Great
Aprendi mucho!
