About this training…
This training is the food industry’s most up-to-date version, of the old-fashioned Basic Food Hygiene course.
This level 2 food safety and GMP eLearning course for Dried Products Manufacturing, is unlike generic Level 2 courses, this training is tailored to dried products production and also includes topics such as culture, product defence, allergen awareness and authenticity.
In this training course, we will take you on a virtual tour of Thirsty Foods Ltd, who make a range of delicious dried foods.
You’ll arrive at site as a new employee and will be sent by security to reception to sign in, before you complete your induction with Barbara. You’ll meet the friendly site team, starting with Karmen who’ll take you on a tour of the external areas, before you enter the staff entrance and look around the facilities. When you’ve got changed and entered the factory you’ll follow the process; looking at how materials are received and prepared for production. Your visit will take you through the mixing, processing and drying areas with Ali, Aaliyah and Ben. You’ll pop into the washroom to see Steph and then head into the packing area to meet Maryam to learn all about the packaging, labelling and sealing processes. Finally, Terry and Ste will show you around the warehouse and dispatch area.
As you move around the site, you’ll learn about food safety and GMP relevant to the production of dried foods, such as pasteurisation, sieving, metal detection, moisture control and much, much more!
We cover the topics you need...
Our training covers all the specific topics your operatives need to understand.
How moisture content effects food safety
The long shelf life of dried products comes from the fact that it’s dried to a safe moisture level, where pathogenic bacteria cannot grow. This food safety method is explained to the learner, so they can appreciate how important the drying process is.
Sieving to remove foreign bodies
Sieving prior to packing is the number one way to remove foreign bodies in powdered products. This method of removal of foreign bodies is explained, what to look for and what to do if something goes wrong.
Packaging into glass
Packing into glass is a high-risk packing format, so glass breakage needs to be strictly controlled. In the packing area these controls are explained in detail.

It is a really well-delivered online course that provides a real-life working simulation to help contextualise the information you need to learn. Love the fact that you can take the course at your own pace and dip in and out as needed – much appreciated when doing it around a busy work schedule. All in all, great value.

Really informative course that was much longer and more thorough than I expected for the price. I liked the quizzes throughout as it kept me engaged and solidified what I’d learnt. The training guide you can download is great too. The content was great, but the format brings it to 4 stars for me. I did the training in work so had it muted and read the dialogue on-screen. I finished reading this much quicker than it was read out, and it was very frustrating not being able to skip to the next part when I was ready. There were also times where a colleague came to speak to me, and the dialogue box disappeared before I had read it and I had no option to bring it back up.
