This live, interactive online course is designed to give those who have had no formal microbiological training an introduction to aspects of the subject, which are of importance in food production. These features includes food safety and how it can be managed. The course covers the importance of microorganisms in the food production environment as well as the food itself. Typical attendees could be Managers in Technical, Hygiene or Quality Departments, Buyers or those working in NPD.
Breaking through some of the microbiology terminology and jargon, you will perform outline microbiological risk assessments, and be shown how to carry out microbiological investigations and decide on appropriate actions based on microbiological results. You will also be provided with a “taste” of microbiological problem-solving, through case studies.
The course will be delivered live online over the course of a day, participants will be sent log in details for a WebEx Training session. Electronic materials will be issued in advance of the course.
