We cover the topics you need…
Our training covers all the specific topics your operatives need to understand, including:
Frying for quality rather than food safety
When you’re processing snacks such as popcorn or crisps, microbiological safety isn’t a huge concern, because you can’t make the product without it being heat treated correctly. Therefore, heat treatment is applied principally for quality purposes. The course explains this and focuses on ensuring that the quality of the product meets specification.
Authenticity claims in snacks and cereals
Ensuring that the product in the pack, meets the claims on the pack is important to consumers today. The topic of authenticity is explained and how materials which carry claims must be labelled and segregated to prevent mix ups.
Optical sorting
An optical sorter is a valuable piece of kit used to inspect produce, to remove foreign bodies and it can be used to remove poor quality materials. This cool piece of kit is explained, what it can do, how it works and what monitoring needs to happen.

Roxana – Jordan’s Ryvita –
This course is very well structured with clear reference to all information needed for operatives working in a Cereals and Snacks operation. This course is about food safety and GMP relevant to the production of snacks and cereals and includes metal detection and so on. It does really help the fact that the course is broken down into smaller modules so it’s very easy to navigate and assimilate the information to complete the final test.
