In partnership with Iowa Western Community College, the ServSafe: Food Protection Manager course and certification is the first step towards learning about food safety while running a business. Food establishments that have Certified Food Protection Managers (CFPM) on staff are found to have fewer violations related to inspection items that are directly related to foodborne illness. Being a CFPM demonstrates that one has the knowledge, skills and abilities necessary to oversee the safe storage, preparation and sale of food to the public.
This is a requirement for all members working at Kitchen Council and for any retail food service operator located in Iowa. This opportunity is open to the public for anyone who needs to earn their Food Protection Manager certification. Participants can be Iowa or Nebraska based residents. Please note that this is a hybrid format which will provide materials for a self-guided 8-hour online course. Additionally, a 3 hour in-person study session, lunch and exam will be provided at the Hoff Center.
