Food Handlers Card Certificate

Many states and counties require food service employees to complete food safety training to receive a Food Handler Card.

Food Handler Cards can normally be obtained by completing an online training program approved by the local health department.

It is important that you choose a training provider approved in your state or city.

When in doubt, contact your local health department to find out food handler card requirements specific to that jurisdiction.
