Foodservice Manager Certification

In most Jurisdictions throughout the US owners and managers of foodservice establishments are required to be certified in food safety. California law requires foodservice facilities to have at least one certified manager. However, many businesses opt to certify the entire foodservice staff.

The Family Health Services Training Center offers a four hour preparatory course designed to upgrade the knowledge of food service professionals who are responsible for protecting the public health in foodservice establishments. The state approved certifying exam is available immediately following the course.
