Finlay Fox 1 review      I’m one of the head chefs at my local restaurant so food hygiene is obviously a really important part of my job. I know my stuff when it comes to this field, but it’s always good to refresh what you know. I’ve done a few similar courses before but none of them were as useful and extensive as this one. Now that I have the knowledge and the accreditation to prove it, I’m going to try and get my restaurant to use Training Express for their online learning. There was just such a gulf between the quality of this course and any other I’ve tried. https://www.trainingexpress.org.uk/course/food-safety-hygiene-level-2-course-for-catering/

Natasha Sanders 1 review      I was hoping to move into the food preparation industry and I thought this course would be a great place to start. It’s endorsed and accredited by lots of independent organisations, which meant I could trust it more going into the classes than the other online courses I’ve seen, and the content itself was clearly top of the line, to the point where it surpassed anything I experienced at college or university. After flying through the classes, I’m now ready to start my new career with a serious qualification and a good understanding of the relevant legislation.
