The Level 3 Award in HACCP for Manufacturing qualification further expands on the fundamentals of the Level 2 Award.
Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 requires that ‘those responsible for the development and maintenance of the HACCP principles have received adequate training in the application of the HACCP principles’. In order for employees to competently and confidently deal with this requirement, a thorough understanding of Codex HACCP principles is needed.
Those achieving this qualification will understand how the 12 Codex steps to HACCP contribute to safe food production. They will learn:
- how to identify, control and monitor significant hazards at points which are critical to food safety
- the appropriate corrective action to take when critical limits are breached
- the type of documentation and records required
- an understanding of the need to review the HACCP system at appropriate times
The Ofqual-approved HABC Level 3 Award in HACCP for Food Manufacturing qualification has been developed specifically for insertion onto the Qualifications and Credit Framework, with full support from Improve, the Sector Skills Council for the food and drink manufacturing industry in the UK. It is therefore fully cognisant with industry and regulatory standards, as well as being recognized by Environmental Health Practitioners, Auditors and other Enforcement Officers.
Candidates undertaking this qualification will understand the importance of adapting HACCP for product-based and process-led situations.
