COURSE DESCRIPTION
As part of the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA), FDA has rolled out the new Preventive Controls for Human Food (PCHF) regulation (21 CFR 117) to ensure safe processing, packing, and holding of food products for human consumption in the USA. The PCHF rule requires FDA-registered processing facilities to have a Preventive Controls Qualified Individual (PCQI) person (21 CFR 117.180 (c ) (1).

- Develop a food safety plan
