This course will cover the core skills and knowledge required to effectively develop, deploy and verify the main pillars of food safety management including risk-based food safety plans, management processes and food safety pre-requisites (PRP’s). It will place particular emphasis on principles of HACCP as defined by the Codex Alimentarius while referring to variations contained in PCP, VA, TACCP and other food safety planning models. Knowledge transfer will be underpinned by a series of practical leaning and reporting exercises including HACCP plan development, standard reviews and auditing of a food safety site. This module assumes that learners have some familiarity with basic application of Codex based HACCP principles, Rev 2021. Sustainability auditing will be addressed as part of the general auditing skills development. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development will be considered and aligned with, but not limited to, SDG Goal 2 (Zero Hunger, including food security), and SDG12 (Responsible Production and Consumption).
