Food Safety Awareness (Online) - Level 2
Overview
Are you passionate about working in hospitality but need to gain an awareness of food safety?

The topics within this course have been carefully selected to give you awareness of some of the key areas within food safety and will give you basic knowledge that can be discussed in an interview or prepare you for further study.
