Food Safety Courses
Major changes to UK food hygiene legislation took place in January 2006 and food business operators, supervisors and food handlers need to be aware of a broad range of issues that might affect the long term viability of the business in which they work.
The law requires that food handlers are trained commensurate with their work activities and the Chartered Institute of Environmental Health (CIEH) has developed a range of food hygiene training courses for food handlers, supervisors and managers. Both the Food Standards Agency (FSA) and the CIEH endorse food handler training; and WATA is pleased to offer food hygiene training at all levels.
WATA is also able to provide accredited HACCP training to help businesses comply with the legal requirement to train managers and food handlers in HACCP. This is relevant to the food safety management systems that food businesses must operate as a part of the legislation introduced in January 2006.
Contact us today for an informal chat about your specific food hygiene training requirements; or if you would like us to visit you for a no obligation, no cost review we would be pleased to help you with your training needs.
National Vocational Qualifications (NVQ)
CIEH accredited food hygiene courses can contribute towards National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) through National Qualification Awarding Bodies (EAL, City & Guilds).
West Anglia Training Association can offer a range of NVQs in Food Manufacturing, Catering and Retail. NVQs are recognised worldwide for providing qualifications that offer proof of the skills workers need to get the job done.
As an NVQ assessment centre, we enrol the candidate onto a suitable NVQ programme, which would be followed by regular in company visits by our assessors to train and assess the competence of the candidate.
