“This was a very thorough training. I learned a lot more about cleaning and sanitizing than I have in other trainings. I also enjoyed the questions at the end of each module. It helped to reinforce the material that was in the modules. I would recommend this training to everyone that needs a food handlers certification.”

“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.”

TEXAS FOOD HANDLER REQUIREMENTS
| State Regulations Food facilities, acceptable by Department of State Health Services (DSHS) and handling, prepping, or serving exposed foods which are potentially hazardous, must hire a certified food manager. The Food Manager Certification should be acquired by successfully passing an accredited, approved exam, such as ServSafe or Always Food Safe. The Texas Administrative Code Title 25 contains the food safety laws for retail food establishments. And within the laws, Rule §228.33 lists the requirements for certified food protection managers: At minimum, the establishment must have one employee with management responsibilities and the authority to control food preparation and service who is a certified food protection manager. The original food manager certificate must be posted in a location at the establishment that very visible to customers. In January of 2010, The Texas Department of State Health Services (DSHS) stopped administering the Certified Food Manager (CFM) exam. Now, the DSHS approves outside providers that you can go through to earn your CFM. There are two different programs you can choose to get certified: a DSHS-approved exam or an ANSI-CFP exam. The Texas DSHS-Approved one is only good for Texas. On the other hand, the ASI-CFP accredited exam is good anywhere in the United States that accepts this program—which includes the majority of states. |
