Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) information will be discussed, as well as what to do before, during and after inspection to provide a culture that keeps food and the public safe. The certification is a requirement to sell or serve food to the public.

The Certified Professional Food Manager course is a three day, 16-hour course that concludes with students taking the national exam.
