Overview

Food borne illness can be very serious, especially for those who are vulnerable, groups such as the very young, older people or those with illnesses.

Food retailers cover many sales outlets, from shops to garages or those selling hot foods such as takeaways. All have the same basic challenges, that is, receiving in the food, perhaps from a central manufacturer or preparation source, but then keeping it in perfect condition for sale. This cannot be achieved unless food retail workers have a thorough grounding in the principles of food safety, food storage and hygiene.

This level 2 course is accepted as the essential standard for all who have the occasion to handle food for retail.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
