Martha Wahl
“This isn’t my first time getting a food handlers card here. I like the way explanations were presented to me. They gave clear understandings and was kinda fun to be honest I liked the review quizzes it gave at the end of each chapter. I didn’t get a 100% score but that was my fault. I am definitely recommending this to other people who need a good handlers card.”
Jemyaa Queeley
“The Videos and Modules are easy to track through and hold the knowledge needed for receiving your food handlers card. I went through the full course in span of 2 days. The videos are kinda long but it's easy to manage when you split it.”

“The course outline was so amazing that I learned a lot. It’s not so difficult to learn just dedication. My experience was superb and I’d definitely recommend the food handler solution to people to take part in it. I got my certificate immediately after the exam and trust me the exams where easy and you’ll pass once you take the courses”
Alissa
“The program was easy to follow along, great for all types of learners. I was able to take the course on my own time with a busy schedule. Would recommend this to others!”
Nancy Harless
“The course is complete and very well organized, however,I found it nerve wracking! Just kidding, but since I have been out of school a good many years it was a tad nerve breaking to take your course and test for fear I’d fail! No worries though. I scored an 85 ! I think perhaps I took the entire process more seriously than younger participants. ( I’’m 76 years old and needed my Certificate to volunteer)”
