Food Handler Reviews
4.9
the course was precise and understandable. I found it comfortable to watch the videos and learn all the steps.
I enjoyed going through each module and learning specific things needed for each food and learning about the danger zone for temperature which was 41 F and 135 F. I also enjoyed learning about food allergies because I only known few of them. This helped me get a better understanding on how to handle foods and what temperatures to put them in.
It was good
I actually learned a few things that I didn’t know already.
I learn a lot
The course was very comprehensive.
Easy way to get this requirement completed. Very informative
This has teach me a lot how to be prepared to handle the food
Good
easy to do
Very good
This was a very good application, for one, the UI is good and easy to understand, concepts are conveyed in a way that even people with ADHD (like me) have a very easy time understanding and retaining information. My only complaint is that the interactive session on high risk populations was hard for me to understand how to progress, not understanding the way to proceed after selection all the groups that are of high risk to foodborne illness.
Clear, easy-to-follow materials and helpful quizzes made studying simple and effective. Highly recommend for anyone in food service.
