Training Course Outline:

At the IFSQN we pride ourselves on providing practical training rather than theoretical. We are pleased to announce an online webinar that you can attend and use to train your team in Integrated Pest Management and how to work with your pest management team. This interactive IFSQN online webinar will enable participants to develop practical knowledge of the principles of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and specifically monitoring.

The webinar provides information on the basics of Integrated Pest Management (IPM) and delves into monitoring systems, monitoring reports, and how to utilize the information to implement prevention strategies. Even though most sites have a third party vendor that provides their pest management, it is essential to know how to interpret the information and data they provide from their services. The course will also include specific, real-world examples to work through and “problem solve”.

The course is suitable for food handlers, quality assurance, supervisors, managers, and HACCP/PCQI team members working in food manufacturing, food packaging, food handling, food storage or food distribution operations.

All attendees receive:

• Copy of the training material (PDF)
• Personalized IFSQN Training Academy Certificate awarded on successful completion of the course and end test
• 30 day access to the webinar recording
