Enjoyable learning

I thoroughly enjoyed this course that I had to take for our youth concessions. The self-paced modules were concise and the graphics were helpful. I loved the questions that popped up throughout the modules. I felt prepared for the exam.

The course was very well put together and easy to follow. Learned many things that we seem to forget when working with food. It was a great course to make sure you are doing all the correct things when handling food

The One Place For Both Certs

09/19/26

So glad I landed on this website. I got my food handler and food manager certificates from the same site, and both are acceptable by the States I live and work at. The prices were very reasonable. But I would say the questions I had on the food manager test were not part of the practice test they have. I relied on other youtubes I found. But passed the test from the first attempt. You are allowed two with the same payment.
