Training on Safer food, better business (SFBB)

Training on the SFBB toolkit is available to help to implement this food safety management system. The training is available to officers working at those local authorities receiving FSA Special Grant Scheme funding and those who may not have been granted additional resources to implement SFBB.

'Successful Implementation of SFBB': the knowledge, skills and techniques of the coaching approach

Following the success of the 2-day courses and the feedback received, the course will now be available in two formats and has specifically been written for the following groups:

1–day course

local authority food safety officers
those who have some experience of using SFBB with businesses
non-local authority delegates with an Environmental Health background

2–day course

local authority officers with no experience of SFBB
newly qualified Environmental Health Practitioners, those moving into or returning to food safety in local authorities
non-local authority or environmental health background delegates
those wishing to cover SFBB at a slower pace or in more detail

These courses are free for local authority officers and those nominated by local authorities. Individuals are advised to try and book on a course near to where they live or work and if accommodation is required, this will need to be booked and paid for by the individual or local authority.

Details of course content and pre-course reading can be found at the links below.
