Lessons, quizzes and the exam simulator in English and Spanish. Charlie speaks English in every guide and Spanish in most.

Grounded in the standards

Written against the published food safety standards and reviewed for accuracy before it ships.

What’s covered

ServSafe is a single national program and HACCP is a federal framework, so the food safety material applies wherever you work. Alcohol service is the exception, and it is called out below.

Food Handler Certification

The core food safety material every kitchen and front-of-house employee is tested on: temperature control, cross-contamination, personal hygiene, cleaning and sanitizing.

Food Protection Manager (CFPM)

The full manager-level syllabus, including HACCP principles, active managerial control, and the responsibilities an inspector will hold you to.

Food Allergen Awareness

The major allergens, cross-contact prevention, guest communication, and what to do when someone reacts.

Workplace Conduct & Harassment Prevention

Harassment prevention, unconscious bias and inclusion, stepping in and reporting when you see something, and building a respectful workplace.

Alcohol Server Certification

Responsible service, intoxication signs, ID checking, and refusing service without escalating.

Check your local rules: Alcohol service requirements vary by state and often by county. In Maryland, certification runs through county liquor boards. Use this as study material, and confirm which specific course your local board accepts.

Pricing
