We can help you by giving your staff the knowledge and skills they need to do their job to the very highest standards.
The law requires that all food handlers need to be trained according to their food handling work activities. Furthermore, those individuals that have successfully completed a food hygiene course will have the confidence and expertise to deliver quality food safely to customers.
Food safety qualifications are intended for anyone working in catering, hospitality or manufacturing settings where food hygiene is essential as food is prepared, cooked, served or produced. Typical environments may include pubs, hotels, restaurants, retail, factories, contract catering, fast-food outlets, hospitals, care and nursing homes, schools, prisons and the armed forces.
Food Centre Wales delivers food safety, HACCP and practical training courses at the centre or at your own facilities for groups. Our experienced Food Technologists specialise in conducting a skills gap-analysis and develop training plans to deliver training that is specific to your staff and business needs. They can deliver in-house bespoke courses to meet HACCP directives to the meat, dairy and catering sectors. Basic meat and dairy skills can be studied and practically applied in our meat and dairy processing areas or at your own processing facility.
Highfield is the Awarding Body for our food safety and HACCP courses.
We have adapted some of our training courses into online virtual classrooms. The training will be delivered online via zoom and we have ensured we can still deliver the same level of training that meets all legal requirements.
