About Course
End-product testing cannot make food safe — it can only sample it. HACCP prevents the hazard in the first place. This is the complete, practical implementation course built on the Codex Alimentarius General Principles of Food Hygiene (CXC 1-1969, revised 2020): the five preliminary steps, all seven principles with the Codex decision tree, validated critical limits and operating limits, monitoring and pre-written corrective actions, the validation-versus-verification distinction, documentation, and keeping the plan alive through change. Includes TACCP and VACCP essentials for GFSI compliance.
Built for HACCP team members, QA staff, production supervisors, and anyone who needs to build, run, or survive an audit of a HACCP plan.
