This is a food handling, sanitation and work safety course designed for food service establishment operators and front line food service workers such as cooks, servers, bussers, dishwashers, and deli workers. The course covers important food safety and worker safety information including food-borne illness, receiving and storing food, preparing food, serving food, cleaning and sanitizing.

It is a VIHA requirement that at least one cook at every residential camp at Camp Barnard hold a Food Safe Level I certification. Please make sure that your group leaders, and older youth are aware of this course.
