Training in safe food handling is essential for any food business and anyone who undertakes or supervises food handling operations. Training can help to ensure you meet your legal obligations under the Food Safety Standards and serve food that is free of hygiene hazards and safe for your customers to consume.
We offer three levels of food handling courses:
This is the official nationally recognised course that meets the requirements of the ‘SITXFSA001 – Use hygienic practices for food safety’ competency from the Service Industries Skills Council. The Food Handlers Certificate course is delivered by Urban E-Learning Pty Ltd (RTO #31973) and is recognised throughout Australia. This course may also be known as: Food Handlers Certificate; Food Safety Certificate; Workplace Hygiene Certificate, or Food Hygiene Certificate. You should complete this course if you are in a high-risk role in a food business (e.g. owner, chef, cook, kitchen hand, catering staff etc.)
On completion of the course, you will receive a Nationally Recognised Statement of Attainment, accepted in all food handling hospitality and retail industries. This Statement of Attainment will give you a credit towards completion of 46 qualifications such as a Diploma of Hospitality, a Certificate IV in Tourism and a Certificate II in Retail Fast Food. Refer to our FAQs for a full list of the qualifications.
