As described by SQF in their code:

Level 1

Food Safety Fundamentals

Level 2

Certified HACCP Food Safety PlansLevel 3 Comprehensive Food Safety and Quality Management Systems

Basically each on builds on the last. Level one being the basics, level 2 covering all food safety and level three adds Quality.

You can find details here: http://www.sqfi.com/...F-2000-Code.pdf

You didn't say where you're located, but in the U.S. U.K, Canada Level 1 is covered by having a solid pre-requisite program (mostly legislated requirements).

Level 2 is Food Safety, which essentially is SQF-speak for HACCP. They break the Codex-based 7 step plan into a comprehensive 12 step program, but they're essentially the same thing.

Level 3 is applying Food Quality concepts to the Food Safety/HACCP steps.

If possible you should take the 2 day Practioner training (eithyer on-line or in a clasroom setting). This training wpuld no doubt answer your questions (and then some!).
