Safe Plates for Food Managers is an evidence-based, interactive food safety training course developed by NC State University.
This training course prepares participants for a CFP-ANSI accredited Certified Food Protection Manager exam from the National Registry of Food Safety Professionals. This is a comprehensive program for food service managers and supervisory staff in restaurants, hospitals, nursing homes, schools and other food handling establishments. For more info, visit go.ncsu.edu/safeplates-retail.
Did you know that hand washing is a critical factor in reducing fecal-oral pathogens that can be transmitted to ready-to-eat foods? Hand driers are allowed by the food code, but paper towels remove more potential pathogens because there is friction involved with wiping hands dry!
Please join us April 28 and 29, 2026 for the full food safety training course. The daily schedule will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. which allows for instructional time and includes time to sit for the exam.
