We will partner with you to ensure your SUCCESS!

We offer Food Safety Training in either one-day or two-day courses, dependent on instructor availability and learner needs.

Slave Lake Adult Education strives to design our courses so that all learners can learn, no matter their strengths or weaknesses. What does this mean? It means that our courses are developed:

  • in plain language, so everyone can understand it
  • with audio when possible, so adults who struggle with reading will not be hindered
  • with memory strategies, so content can later be recalled by the learner
  • with large print for ease in reading for adults with dyslexia
  • with tutoring provided where needed
  • with additional time offered to complete

With courses developed in this way, all learners can learn. We know that not all great minds think alike or learn alike.

The Food Safety Training is for all people handling food at home or in public places.

  • Participants who complete the course successfully will receive a Basics Food Safety certificate (valid for 5 years), which is recognized throughout Canada.
  • Keep your food safe at home
  • Enhance your ability to obtain a job in the foodservice industry
  • Improve your food safe skills on the job
