Food Manager Certification vs. Food Handler Certification
This is a Food Manager Certification course. Food Manager and Food Handler certifications are both food safety courses, but there is a big difference between the two. The Food Manager Certification is a credential that proves an individual has the knowledge and skills to manage food safety in restaurants, schools, hospitals, or other food service operations. The Food Manager course and the certification covers all aspects of food safety and is widely recognized and respected throughout the United States as being one of the highest food safety certifications that you can receive.
Requirements:
To become a Certified Food Protection Manager, a candidate must pass an online food safety certification examination after the completion of a course recognized by the Conference for Food Protection (CFP), while being monitored by an approved Proctor.
