Who is this food safety systems course for?
Food safety personnel, quality teams and supervisors working on the design, implementation or maintenance of a food safety management system.
What does the programme cover?
Understand how food safety hazards are controlled across processes and verified through a management system.
- Food safety hazards and the connection between prerequisite programmes and hazard controls.
- HACCP principles, communication and control of operational activities.
- Traceability, withdrawal or recall arrangements and verification of the system.
Why do prerequisite programmes matter to food safety?
A hazard-control plan relies on the basic conditions under which food is produced and handled. Cleaning, hygiene, maintenance and other supporting arrangements help establish that environment. Studying their relationship with hazard analysis explains why a food safety system needs both reliable everyday practices and controls selected for the specific process. Verification then examines whether those arrangements continue to work together.
From hazard analysis to a working management system
Learning connects prerequisite programmes, hazard analysis, operational controls, verification and management review. A functioning system needs consistent responsibilities and records across the food chain; certification of an organisation is separate from an individual training certificate.
How does ISO 22000 relate to HACCP?
HACCP addresses the analysis and control of food safety hazards. ISO 22000 places food safety controls within a wider management system, including leadership, communication, verification and improvement. Auditing therefore examines both the hazard-control logic and its management.
