How It Works. A description of this training process. Video Runtime - 6:33. Hello and welcome. I'm Andy Bozeman. I'm a registered ServSafe® instructor and proctor. My ServSafe® number is 5389498. I am the CEO and Chief Education Administrator of the Food Safety Training Center. The web site is FSTC-USA.com. I've presented ServSafe® training for state compliant food protection manager certification to thousands of students. My pass rate is above 80 percent. Through FSTC-USA.com I offer ServSafe® training Online and On-demand. Now, these web-based ServSafe® training programs are presented with prior, written permission from the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (NRAEF), which owns the ServSafe® program. Classes will address Basic Training for all food handlers, as well as 8 hour and 16 hour minimum certification requirements, by covering the entire ServSafe® curriculum. Different courses are available BASIC TRAINING is for ALL non-management food handlers who assist in food related operations, for Babysitters who want an edge on the competition, and for Individuals who simply want to be more safe with food at home. CERTIFICATION TRAINING is available for Professional Food Protection Managers who must be certified to meet State food code requirements. This training is for EVERYONE concerned with food safety, Managers who must meet State requirements, Food Handlers who need to know about food safety to get, or keep a job, Anyone who picks, packs, prepares, or processes food. General employees, ALL of whom support food safety in any food related business. Babysitters who want an extra edge on the competition. And, Individuals who just want to know. Everyone needs this knowledge. Whether you harvest, slaughter, handle, process, pack, deliver, store, prepare or serve, this training is for you. Here's how it works. You can take the training classes online from anywhere in the world with a capable computer. Then, if needed, take the exam near home. Simply register, receive instructions, and start your training. Anyone can take any class. Managers, employees, and individuals all have the same instant, on-demand access. Anyone who wants to take the training without the exam or a book can register and start the training immediately. But, for the best learning experience, it is recommended that you take the training with the correct book. The only class eligible for a State required ServSafe® Food Protection Manager Certificate is the Certification Class. For those who need to take the certification exam, I am in the process of signing thousands of exam administrators - proctors - across America who can provide you with the certification exam, close to home. For those seeking State Required Certification training, this program involves two separate purchases. The first purchase is from FSTC-USA.com for the online, on-demand ServSafe® training class and book. The second purchase is directly from an independent ServSafe® exam administrator - a proctor - for the ServSafe® certification exam. Here's how THAT works. From your location, first, you will purchase ServSafe® training directly from FSTC-USA.com. Second, you will purchase your exam directly from a ServSafe® exam administrator –or proctor - who will provide the exam in your local area. The price of the exam is determined by each proctor. I do not dictate the price that any proctor might charge for an exam. You may choose any registered ServSafe® proctor. But, I am in the process of signing thousands of proctors, across America, who can provide you with the certification exam, close to home. The names of these FSTC List Proctors will be made available to you, free of charge, when you register to take the training. It is strongly recommended that you call this proctor, as soon as possible after you register for the training, to schedule your exam so it can occur, as soon as possible after you complete your training. If your order includes a book it will be sent to you. Take some time to study the book. Then, start the on-demand training, according to your own schedule, from any location with internet service. You can use any computer or handheld device that's FLASH®-ready. When you complete your training, go to your proctor to take the exam in person. After you pass the exam, your proctor will deliver your ServSafe® certificate. To take the class, go to FSTC-USA.com. On the home page Click Registration. Choose your course Register and pay. If your order includes a book, it will arrive in a few days. And, instructions will be emailed to you to start your training. On-Demand Training ADVANTAGES are NUMEROUS You get 120 hours of clock time to complete a 9 hour course. Now, this is not stopwatch time. This IS running clock time. After you start your training, the clock will keep running, even if you log-off. But, you get 120 hours, that's 5 days, to get through a 9 hour course. Take the training anytime.
