Online Food and Hygiene Certificate

Hi sorry if this question has already been posted.

i am thinking of starting a jacket potato stall.To trade at local carboots initially.

I need a food & hygeine certificate. well i have seen courses advertised on the internet for as low as £25.

They say you study at home and take the exam at home.Which would be very convenient and cost effective.

But i just wondered if these certificates are valid in business. can anyone advise. thanks

Hi Paul,

I have to say that I am not sure about this one, but I would not be that surprised if this is the case.

hen I took the course the food and hygiene course a trainer attended my house to give me and a friend this course. It did not take that long from what I can recall a lot of the questions were common sense.

If your unsure why not attend a local collage or do some checks to see if this online version will be suitable for you.

Sorry that I can’t offer any more guidance than this.

Best of luck
David
