TrainSafe Instructions:
TrainSafe® offers restaurants the ability to train foodhandlers easily, effortlessly and enexpensively. TrainSafe uses the State-Approved food safety program of Chez Pierre. This program has been designed for easy implementation within your restaurant by using your certified food manager as the trainer. The TrainSafe® book can be shared and re-used and we recommend one book per 3 employees. You may also sign-up (sign up form) to receive free access to the PDF version of the book.
It is required that you purchase and maintain a certificate from
TrainSafe® for each trained foodhandler. This certificate is valid for three years.
The inspector will be looking for an ORIGINAL CERTIFICATE, not a copy.
