Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) is a food safety system that ensures food is prepared safely and hygienically. Managers, supervisors, and team leaders responsible for kitchen operations should understand how to develop and implement a HACCP-based system.

This course teaches learners the skills and confidence to establish effective, safe and efficient food preparation systems. It provides a simple yet detailed introduction to HACCP and guidance on creating legally compliant food safety procedures.

HACCP was first created by NASA during the space race to keep food safe. Over time, it became a system used by many. In 2006, food safety laws in England and the rest of the UK were updated to match HACCP rules, making it simpler for businesses to manage food safety.

Level 2 HACCP Certificate
After completing the course and passing the online test, you will receive your Level 2 HACCP certificate. This certification is widely recognised and serves as proof of HACCP training for both internal use and external audits.
While there’s no official expiration date for the certificate, the industry-standard recommends renewing food hygiene certificates every three years. However, some employers may require more frequent renewal.
The HACCP course covers EU Food Law Regulation 852/2004, Article 5, which mandates all food businesses to implement and maintain HACCP-based food safety procedures. Made mandatory in 2006, this regulation ensures consumer protection from unsafe food, with HACCP recognised as the most effective approach.
