Course Description

The course covers nutrition basics, macro and micronutrients, and food groups. On the other hand, food and beverage employees' personal hygiene, kitchen and tool sanitation, hygiene steps for healthy production, HACCP, ISO, and quality and hygiene standards are taught. Students will learn food safety and consumer health rules for mass food production by the end of the course. It contains information to ensure food safety during storage, preparation, cooking, thawing, and keeping warm, as well as all hygiene factors (personal, production, equipment, etc.). It's taught how to eliminate food-borne disease and poisoning causes, ensure personal and food hygiene, and use quality assurance systems effectively.
