Need a food hygiene certificate?

In 2006, new EU legislation introduced HACCP (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) legislation into the UK.

This necessitated a review of food safety training to combine the old 'Basic Food Hygiene' training with HACCP. The new training is called Food Safety Training at levels 1 & 2. These standards have now replaced the old Basic Food Hygiene standards.

The Course

Level 1 Award in Food Safety Awareness for Catering is intended for:
•those who do not handle or prepare high risk
•New starters
Duration: Approximately 1 hour.

Course Content

The course has an introduction and eleven sections of learning. After each section there is an activity which is intended to help re-inforce the understanding and retention of the learning.

This course is the simplest, most cost effective way to achieve compliance in 1 hour. It contains the new HACCP information and meets the requirements of the New Food Standards. It is ideal for new starters who can then progress to level 2 in time, or if they change the nature of the food they handle.

The Assessment

The course contains a live link to the awarding body EDI. When ready, the learner registers their details on-line. They are then taken to the 20 multi-choice questions (of which they must answer 66% correctly). Upon completion, the learner can view or print their marked questions and if successful can print their certificate from EDI directly from their PC, no waiting involved.
