RIPH Advance certificate in Applied HACCP Principles

Public concerns about standards of food safety and raised expectations regarding food quality have grown significantly in the past few years.  This has been matched by the industry's determination to raise standards of food safety and quality generally.  European and UK legislation reflect these pressures and now require all food business operators except primary producers - to implement a documented food safety management system based on the principles of the Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point (HACCP) system.  This provides an effective and practicable management tool for identifying food safety hazards and ensuring that adequate controls are in place.  This Advanced Certificate has been designed for those working in all sectors of the food industry who establish, implement and manage HACCP systems, ie:
