“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.”

“I have been using the FOOD HANDLER SOLUTIONS company since 2022, the ease of the sessions when you can go through each topic, watch the slides and have a little knowledge test at the end of each session to make sure you're retaining the information before you move on to take the actual 40 question test, IS WHAT SOLD ME! The system is very very easy to maneuver to get through each topic, I will continue to use the FOOD HANDLER SOLUTIONS company as long as they're in business.

FAQs
A Person-In-Charge (PIC) becomes a certified food protection manager by successfully completing an accredited and approved exam from Prometric or ServSafe. Once they have passed one of the accredited exams, the PIC will acquire a certificate and will be considered in compliance with the requirement. Training is not a Massachusetts requirement, however, it is highly recommended.
All food facilities must have a certified food protection manager except the following:
- Temporary food facilities operated by non-profit organizations
- Daycare operations that prepare and/or serve snacks only
- Food facilities that sell only pre-packaged food items
- Food facilities with limited preparation of food that is not potentially hazardous
- Food facilities that prepare and serve USDA meat and poultry products containing 120 PPM nitrite and 3.5% brine concentration, for example, hotdogs.
- Satellite feeding locations receiving already prepared meals from commissaries for immediate service.
No, they do not, however, when the PIC is not present during operating hours, an alternate PIC must be designated. The alternate PIC does not have to have certification, but this individual must be knowledgeable in food safety, food-borne illness prevention, and corrective actions. This individual should be at least eighteen years of age and is a full-time position equal to an on-site manager or supervisor.
Training is not required in Massachusetts but is highly recommended.
- Online Food Manager Training: A self-paced training that is online and incorporates different learning experiences such as graphics, audio, and cooperative learning exercises. This is a very effective learning program.
