This 3-day course includes the materials developed by the Food Safety Preventive Controls Alliance (the curriculum recognized by the FDA) for the FSPCA Preventive Controls for Human Food Course. It also incorporates additional information for participants who have not had a HACCP course or need refresher HACCP training. Items in red in the agenda are the supplemental HACCP material. Participants will potentially receive two certificates of training.

The training will be conducted via Zoom and recorded if or as required. Participants are required to use audio and video so the instructor can verify active participation. If the video connection is not stable, participation will be confirmed initially then continued participation verified via discussion, chat, text, or email throughout the course. Exercises that are part of the course may be required to be submitted to the instructor verbally, by email, or via screen-sharing. Group exercises will be completed using breakout rooms. Prior to the course, participants should ensure Zoom capabilities.

Hard copy course materials (book, workbook) will be shipped to participants prior to the course.  Participants who register less than 2 weeks prior to each class are not guaranteed hard copy materials in time for class. For ‘late’ registrants, electronic materials will be provided as needed and hard copies will be sent only if requested.

This course will include an exam to help verify effective learning. Preventive Controls Certificates are not dependent on quiz results, rather this is based on active participation and demonstration of understanding throughout the course. HACCP Certificates with the seal from the International HACCP Alliance are dependent upon exam results and will be issued for a score of 75% or better. The exam is delivered using Google Forms.
