Course Overview
From 1 January 2006, EU legislation has required all food organisations to have a documented food safety management system in place, based on Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) principles. Although effective in theory, HACCP has been difficult to establish in catering businesses because of the numerous processes involved in preparing and serving food. For this reason user-friendly management tools have been created, such as the Safer Food Better Business (SFBB) pack adopted by the FSA, to help caterers comply with the new regulations.
The CIEH Level 3 Award in Implementing Food Safety Management Procedures qualification examines HACCP and tools such as SFBB.
Who is it for?
This course will be invaluable for managers and proprietors of small and medium sized catering businesses. It is strongly recommended that candidates for this qualification have a good basic understanding of food safety that is equivalent to the recently offered Foundation Certificate in Food Hygiene.

- Use of management tools such as FSA's "Safer Food Better Business" pack
- Policies, controls and standards
