Food Safety Training offered Oct. 20

Food safety management training will take place Tuesday, Oct. 20, by distance delivery.

The UAF Cooperative Extension Service will offer the workshop from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. A computer-based certification exam will be offered after the training, and proctors have been lined up in Fairbanks, Bethel, Juneau, Palmer, Sitka, Unalaska and Valdez. Proctors may be available in additional communities, as requested.

State regulations require that all food establishments have at least one certified food protection manager on staff to ensure compliance with food safety regulations.

Registration by Oct. 9 is requested so students may receive a study guide before the class. Studying this beforehand is recommended. Registration and more information are available at https://bit.ly/30s1zwT.

The $200 fee includes a student book and one certification exam. For additional information or to request another proctor location, contact the instructor, Julie Cascio, at 907-745-3677 or jmcascio@alaska.edu.
