The Food Hygiene – Level 2 Course has been written for everyone who is involved in any industry associated with food preparation. It aims to give all staff, supervisors and managers the essential knowledge needed to offer the very best professional approach to Food Hygiene.

Food poisoning often happens because of a lack of awareness and poor food hygiene. This is why, by law, everyone who handles food must receive training and/or supervision in food hygiene specifically appropriate to the job they do.

As most food poisoning cases are caused by simple mistakes, training is universally recognised for its vital role in improving standards of food hygiene and meeting your customers’ demands for safer food. And, because UK law now requires “…all food handlers to receive instruction/supervision and or training in food hygiene matter…” there has never been a better time to act.

On successful completion of the home study courses students will receive a recognised level 2 award (Comparable to working at GCSE or NVQ Level 2).

The Food Hygiene Course covers the following Units:-

  • Unit 1 – Legislation
  • Unit 2 – What is Food Hygiene?
  • Unit 3 – Food Contamination
  • Unit 4 – Food Poisoning
  • Unit 5 – How Bacteria Multiply
  • Unit 6 – Preventing Food Poisoning
  • Unit 7 – Personal Hygiene
  • Unit 8 – Safe Food Preparation

  • Unit 10 – Food Storage
  • Unit 11 – Waste Disposal and Pest Control
