“Very informative. It's very helpful. The topics were all related to proper food handling and safety. I've learned a lot.”
Darcie Cook
“This was an actual corse on how to handle food and prepare it! On top of cleaning agents and many other topics. There are other places that you can just take the test. I liked that this one was able to teach you everything you needed to know and allow you to do a knowledge test at the end of each module. It is a little time consuming so make sure you have an hr or more available for it! There are 8 total modules. I got some new things I didn’t already know from it! As well as a refresher on things I already did. Over all it was worth it to me. Hope this helps anyone else looking for the right place to get their food handlers card.”

“I found the food handler's test to be very easy to understand, which made the entire experience stress-free. The combination of video and audio was especially helpful, as it made the material more engaging and accessible. I really appreciated how clearly everything was explained, and the format made it easy to follow along and retain the information. Overall, it was a smooth and user-friendly learning process.”

“These lessons came with visuals and quizzes after each lesson which made me feel more prepared for the test at the end & made me feel confident at being able to pass my tests after all the lessons”

“Love the training. The self-pace and videos are extremely helpful in conducting this training. I would definitely recommend them to others who might need this type of training for work.”
