Why attend

This professional qualification is run in conjunction with Holchem Laboratories Ltd and Food Training Partnership and is the only nationally accredited course dealing specifically with the management of hygiene in the food processing/manufacturing sector. The qualification is the equivalent of an NVQ Level Three and is awarded through the Open College Network, which is specifically targeted at adult learners actively employed within their chosen sector.

The course is operating on a three-day workshop basis over a two-month period - attending all six days is mandatory to successfully complete the course. Assessment is through submission of a portfolio of evidence consisting of a series of 'work-books' and assignments, the latter being employment based.

• Legislation, third party auditing and retailer issues
