Course Aims, and Who It's Aimed At
This course is for Supervisory staff in any retail, catering or manufacturing business, who are implementing food safety management systems, and directly supervise staff.
Owners and managers of smaller businesses would also benefit.
If you're unsure, contact us.
Aim #1
Deeper knowledge of food hazards, for your benefit and so you can explain it to others more convincingly.
Aim #2
Regarding those all-important "5 Star" procedures, an understanding of what's "under the bonnet" always helps. You'll know a lot more about "HACCP" after this course.
We'l cover what these procedures look like for common issues like raw material sourcing, preventing cross contamination, cleaning, pest control, personal hygiene, etc.
Aim #3
Bring in some supervisory management principles, to help you make it happen.
How Do We Deliver?
We send all the relevant materials prior to the first session, including the traditional coursebook. Learning is spread over four, 1.5 hour webinars, delivered from our No.8 training facilities. After a session, delegates will access the next activities that will reinforce the previous session, and lay the foundations for the next session.
During the webinars, we'll not only be answering questions and chairing discussions, we'll be conducting activities, using our interactive whiteboard (recording our discussions for sending out afterwards), and carrying out our usual range of demonstrations. This will not be your standard "passive" webinar, delegates will be truly involved.
Delegates must therefore attend all the live sessions and complete the work assigned to qualify for the assessment at the end of the course.
We do have a maximum cap on the number of delegates, to make sure that our discussions are inclusive for everyone; this is not a mass-market exercise.
Why RedCat?
Tutors Sarah and Richard are chartered Environmental Health Officers. Their extensive knowledge and experience (65 years combined!) is through the traditional "EHO" enforcement role, and 21 years of food safety consultancy through RedCat.
We've been successfully delivering food safety training locally and nationally since 1988.
Ensuring that Supervisory staff get the most "return on investment" from courses such as this, is as vital as ever. This program will help deliver the knowledge, retention, understanding and behaviour change that supervisors require, something traditional e-learning simply can't guarantee.
