The Importance of Food Safety
One of the biggest lessons that individuals who become ServSafe certified take away from our class is how important food safety really is. Beyond the specific knowledge and skills they’ll acquire through this class, they will also gain a more profound respect for food safety as a whole.
Good Personal Hygiene
Another topic of discussion during the ServSafe food safety course is the importance of good personal hygiene. From proper hand washing techniques to personal grooming practices, your managers will learn everything necessary about hygiene during our ServSafe course.
Time and Temperature Control
A major topic of focus during our ServSafe class is the importance of time and temperature control (TCS) for food safety. During this section of the course, we’ll cover the temperature danger zone, how to heat, hold, and cool TCS food, as well as a more in-depth look into the pathogens that can make people sick when processes aren’t followed.
Preventing Cross-Contamination
Cross-contamination is another area of focus during the ServSafe food safety course at Raise-The-Grade. We’ll cover common ways that cross contamination can occur as well as tactics that help us to prevent the spread of pathogens through contamination.
