The FDA’s Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) requires that food facilities prepare and implement a food defense plan to prevent acts of intentional adulteration. This course addresses those FSMA requirements and Global Food Safety Initiative (GFSI) certification standards. Be challenged on how you would handle intentional adulteration risks and learn to design a comprehensive food defense plan. Through proactive preparedness and training, you can avoid intentional adulteration in your operation and supply chain.

After this training, you will be prepared to:

Develop a vulnerability assessment
Choose potential mitigation strategies that address identified actionable process steps
Establish a multidisciplinary food defense team to build your food defense plan
Establish food defense monitoring, corrective actions, and verification activities for identified mitigation strategies
Develop employee food defense training sessions that focus on FDA and GFSI expectations
