The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) rule requires that importers perform certain risk-based activities to verify that food imported into the USA has been produced in a manner that meets applicable USA food safety standards.
BQUALI offers the FSVP course aimed at the USA Food Importers as well as the companies that export food to the USA in order to provide participants with an understanding of the requirements of the FSMA FSVP rule for importers of food for humans and animals. This course was developed by the Food Safety Preventive Controls Alliance (FSPCA) and was designed to help you understand how to meet the FSVP requirements.
