Regulatory Requirements:

This course aligns with the 2022 FDA Food Code, which states in Section 2-102.12 that the Person In Charge (PIC) must be a Certified Food Protection Manager — and must be on duty during all hours that food is being prepared or served.

Our course and certification offering is designed to meet this federal standard and provide the knowledge base required of a PIC. It reflects current food safety regulations, best practices, and real-world operational insight.

That said — your local or state jurisdiction may have its own rules (because of course they do). City, county, and state health departments often tack on extra requirements or variations, so it’s always smart to check with your local regulatory authority to make sure you’re checking all the right boxes.

This class is part of our Instructor Certificate Recognition and Remote Food Safety Course series, built to help food service professionals confidently meet and exceed food safety standards in any setting.
