Engineers. They're fun aren't they?
After doing a hygiene audit this morning, I've realised our engineers know nothing about hygienic design. There is a short section on it in Level 4 food hygiene but does anyone know of any specific UK based training courses please?

I've never seen a 'design specific' course but there a few of these around in the UK HACCP for Engineers which do purport to cover design-though not sure in how much detail!
IMO your issue sounds like the perfect candidate for a bespoke course- but that would work out to be quite expensive!

Both CCFRA & Leatherhead run Hygenic Design courses
I think CCFRA do a bespoke Engineering hygiene course too

"Fun" is not the adjective I would have chosen......... :giggle:

Better than interesting. :ejut:
As in
"This landing is gonna get pretty interesting."
"Define "interesting"."
"Oh God, oh God, we're all going to die?"

I love the word interesting.... :roflmao: You know what they say, " A good landing is one from which you can walk away. A great landing is one after which they can use the plane again". :yikes:
The biggest problem with engineers is that have difficulty in understanding that a septic tank and a food contact surface are different.
Also Swarf is not something the rest of us enjoy.
Hold any factory engineer upside down by the ankles and shake them long enough and a can of WD40 will fall out!
There is an accredited Level 2 Food Hygiene for Engineers course available from some training companies.
off the top of my head I can't remember the awarding body.
As part of the Welsh Food & Drink Skills project there is a non accredited course on Food Hygiene for Engineers available, it comes with an embarrassing amount of funding (70% for SMEs)
It is at Level 2

^^^ An excellent auditor once said to one "do you have a torch?"
"No, well there's one in the tool kit there and it's on the inventory"
"Well you know, when you need a torch, you want your one, not the one in the tool kit. You know the one that works really well."
"Well I have this one" (brings uncontrolled torch out of pocket)
I have no idea how she knew or if she saw him using it but I'm normally the most observant person in the room and I felt like a right eejit.
