Finally a certification course that goes well beyond the multi-day seminar. This 5 course, one year, certification program gives an in depth review of food science and food manufacturing industry in a timely and relevant manner. As a QA director for a national food sanitation firm, I felt this course was so beneficial that our firm is rolling it out to our plant sanitation managers and other corp. executives as well.
