In providing this knowledge, supervisors and food managers will be able to develop and implement food safety systems appropriate to their workplace.

The Level 3 Food Hygiene Course is ideal for anyone responsible for the HACCP system in a food business. The course focuses on developing an in depth knowledge of food safety, implementing a HACCP system and the importance of training staff. The course will give candidates the knowledge required for putting a food safety management system into place, whilst teaching the candidates how to communicate this knowledge to other staff as the business expands.

Our Level 3 Food Hygiene Course is recommended for any food business that is striving to achieve a 5* Scores on the Doors rating, the national hygiene rating system that looks at how well a food business is managed.

For a good rating, the Environmental Health Officer will be looking for managers and supervisors to be trained to Level 3 Food Hygiene standard.

For Supervisors and Managers in small businesses, taking the Level 3 Course will help make sense of the Safer Food Better Business Pack provided by the FSA (Also Cook Safe in Scotland / Safe Catering in Northern Ireland).
