**Level 2 HACCP Training**

Module 01: Introduction to HACCP and Legislation

This is the introductory module which will introduce learners with the HACCP system and their fundamental principles. The critical pieces of legislation regarding food safety and the enforcement of those legislations will also be discussed throughout this module. Another essential part of this module is the definition of key terms related to HACCP and food safety.

Module 02: Food Safety Microbiological Hazards

Module 2 will focus on microbiological hazards and food poisoning. This module will go on by discussing the various causes of food poisoning and the prevention methods, common food poisoning bacteria and diseases caused by them, and the prevention of microbiological contamination.

Module 03: Food Safety: Allergenic, Chemical & Physical Hazards

In this 3rd module, we’ll look at all the potential allergenic, chemical & physical hazards that can compromise food safety and learn how to minimise contamination. The allergen laws will also be discussed in this module.

Module 04: HACCP Prerequisites, Preliminary Steps and Creation of HACCP System

This module is focused on the HACCP system. You’ll get to know about the HACCP prerequisites and the examples of prerequisites. We’ll discuss the five preliminary steps of HACCP and teach the learners on how to create a HACCP system

Module 5: The Seven HACCP Principles Explained

This final module will explore each of the seven main principles of the HACCP system. Having thoroughly explored these steps will enable you to carry out a comprehensive HACCP. The learners will also become familiar with the codex decision tree tool in this module.

**Level 3 HACCP Training**

Module 01: An Introduction to HACCP

This introductory module will get rolling by introducing the learners with a food safety management system and the HACCP system. The benefits and the importance of HACCP system will also be discussed in this module along with the key terms related to HACCP and food safety management.

Module 02: HACCP and Food Safety Legislation

This second module will mainly focus on the legislation that covers food safety. The other topics to be included in this module are business and food safety legislation, enforcement, business owners and the law, and due diligence.

Module 03: Food Safety Hazards

This module will get going with the top 10 causes of food poisoning. Later on, it will discuss the prevention of outbreaks of food poisoning, food safety hazards, and food handlers and illness. The module will be wrapped up with the topic contamination and the control and prevention of microbiological contamination.

Module 04: Planning a HACCP System

Module 4 will discuss how to prepare the HACCP system along with the prerequisites. This section will also familiarise the learners with the common pitfalls which need to be avoided to create a robust HACCP system.

Module 05: Creating the HACCP System

The seven principles of HACCP, key terminologies, and the food safety management essentials will be the highlighted topics of module 5.

Module 06: Principle 1 – Hazard Analysis

This module will expand on hazard analysis, the first step of a HACCP system. The risk matrix, P.I.G.S., and the 3 step approach to hazard analysis will also be discussed in this module.

Module 07: Principle 2 – Critical Control Points

The central focus part of this module is critical control point identification. We will examine the importance of control measures and introduce learners to the codex tree and provide an illustrative example.

Module 08: Principle 3 – Critical Limits

The module will start with the definition of ‘critical limit.’ The scientific basis of critical limits, the condition required for critical limits, and the documentation of critical limits will be discussed throughout this module. We will also look at some of the commonly used critical limits across different industries.

Module 09: Principle 4 – Monitoring Critical Control Points

In this module, we will examine what is meant by ’monitoring’. We will explore how to carry out effective monitoring, along with various types of monitoring. We will address the need to decide the frequency of your monitoring and the development of the monitoring plan.

Module 10: Principle 5 – Corrective Action

Establish corrective actions is a pivotal step in the HACCP system, and this module will cover what is meant by the term ‘corrective action.’ The levels of corrective action and the associated procedures will also be covered in this module. We will provide an example of a product recall, illustrating the theory in real-world situations.

Module 11: Principle 6 – Verification of the HACCP System

In this module, we will consider HACCP Principle 6, Verification of the HACCP System. We will also discuss the importance of verification and the benefits of reviewing your HACCP plan. Finally this module will go on to look at HACCP auditing, including data analysis, sampling and testing.

Module 12: Principle 7 – Documentation

The final step of the HACCP system will take the centre stage in this module. We will cover all aspects of this area, including record keeping, maintaining sources of information and HACCP documentation.

Module 13: Implementing the HACCP System

This module will discuss how you go about implementing HACCP. We will explore the methods you can use and underscore the importance of appropriate training. The module will conclude with a section on how you make HACCP visible across the workplace.

Module 14: HACCP Alternatives

In this final module, we will discuss some of the criticisms of the HACCP system and introduce you to some alternatives approaches. We will provide you with links to helpful tools and references where appropriate. At the end of the module, you will be ready to begin the multiple-choice test for the course.
