Entry Requirements & Learning Assistance
Whilst not essential, it will be much easier for delegates if they have previously attended a Food Handling Course – Category B, implementing the requirements of S.L.449.24, and are able to read and write fluently. Should any delegate have any learning difficulties, please advise the trainer(s) in order to allow them to discuss how they may help you reach the course objectives.
