Food handlers training courses continues to be offered by the Cayman Islands Department of Environmental Health.
Food industry personnel who have not yet taken one of these training courses, or those needing to update their certification, should register to attend.
“Operators of Food Businesses are reminded that DEH requires all personnel handling food to be trained, especially those taking part in the upcoming Pirates week festival,” said Gideon Simms, senior food safety officer.
Each session will run from 9am to 4pm at the DEH conference room in the CI Environmental Centre, located at 580 North Sound Road in Grand Cayman.
A registration cost of $15 per person covers all materials and fees should be paid at DEH headquarters, also at 580 North Sound Road, between 8.30am and 5pm, Monday through Friday.
Basic food handlers’ training will equip participants with sufficient knowledge to prevent food-borne illness and the spread of food-borne pathogens.
Certification lasts for three years. Persons wishing to continue as food handlers after expiry must renew their certification.
For more information, call the DEH at 949-6696.
