HABC does not currently offer qualifications in alternative languages. Centres expressing an interest in offering qualifications in languages other than English should write a written request to HABC. HABC will consider all requests on an individual basis.

All existing and new qualifications will be listed on the HABC website. New qualifications will receive marketing support to promote the qualification appropriately in the relevant sectors.

For every qualification offered a course guide will be provided, part of which will advise on whom the qualification is suitable for. HABC would advise candidates to seek advice from their educational establishment or employer.

HABC is recognised by Ofqual, DCELLS and CCEA to award accredited Levels 2 and 3 Food Safety in Catering, Level 2 Food Safety for Manufacturing and Levels 2 and 3 Health and Safety in the Workplace qualifications.

HABC also offers a range of Level 1 qualifications. These are as follows:

Food Safety in Catering
Food Safety for Manufacturing
Food Safety for Retail
Health and Safety in the Workplace
Health and Safety for Catering
Health and Safety for Manufacturing
Health and Safety for Retail
Health and Safety for Carers

Level 1 qualifications are not accredited by the Regulators as the the guided learning hours do not meet the minimum requirements. As a result HABC endorses Level 1 qualifications.
