- This food safety compliance training will focus on multiple certifications that are available for food safety and how to choose the right certification to pair with the needs of the organization. It will also provide the high level fundamentals that are needed to be in place in order to safely manufacture, package, and or handle food products to become certified.
Why Should You Attend:
Since the Food Safety Modernization Act of 2010 became live in 2011 and the Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) began gaining significant ground since 2012, certification is now key to gain and maintain clients as well as ensure compliance. These requirements and mandates push every organization to ensure that they are up to date on their food safety programs. With the associated costs related to oversights and recalls, food safety certification is an important economic aspect of any organization.
