FSMA PCQI Training

8:00am to 5:00pm Tuesday, November 29 through Thursday, December 1st.  Presented by Bates Consulting, LLC.

The Current Good Manufacturing Practice, Hazard Analysis, and Risk-based Preventive Controls for Human Food regulation (referred to as the Preventive Controls for Human Food regulation) is intended to ensure safe manufacturing/processing, packing and holding of food products for human consumption in the United States. The regulation requires that certain activities must be completed by a “preventive controls qualified individual” who has “successfully completed training in the development and application of risk-based preventive controls”.

This course developed by the FSPCA is the “standardized curriculum” recognized by FDA; successfully completing this course is one way to meet the requirements for a “preventive controls qualified individual (PCQI).”

Successful completion of the course requires attendees to participate in 20 hours of instruction, exercises and discussion. The course fee includes a participant manual, workbook and an officially (AFDO & IFPTI) issued certificate. The instructor will provide access to electronic forms used in the class as well.
