A comprehensive prep course for food handling

By: Don Allen on Nov 7, 2017

I was a bit intimidated by this test requirement, since I had just started a food handling job for a leading retailer. The online course proved to be clear, concise and very detailed. The test itself covered a broad spectrum of specific details as well as thoughtful decision-making issues. I was surprised and happy that I was able to pass it on the first attempt.
