Why People Like You Choose FoodSafePal
Food Handlers Card
Five star
Very fast
It lets you try 2 times I believe either way I passed I liked it
Fast and Easy Study Guide
It was user friendly
Testing
This app was easily maneuvered. I like that I was given prompts if I answered a question incorrectly. One of the questions I missed, not because I didn’t know the answer, but because of the way I was given to answer. There were bubbles that were given me to move and was very difficult to get them in the correct spot for the correct answer. Other than that I was pleased with the process. Thank you!
Love It!
Great course with audible narration and graphics. Take good notes, hit the back button if needed, and you’ll pass on the first try. Highly recommended!
Great presentation
I liked it. The presenter spoke quickly so I didn’t get bored. I also appreciate that they could jump back 10 seconds. I took a lot of notes and I’m glad I did because there’s a lot of specific questions about temperature, inches off the floor, doffing gloves etc
