This is one of the new initiatives taken by both MINDEF and RBAF to keep abreast with current best practices in aligning itself towards international standards. Is also enhanced its human resource capacity to another level in harmonising existing practices towards a more relevant and current practice in food safety especially in catering services in MINDEF and RBAF food premises.
As a registered CIEH centre, Megamas is now able to deliver a wide range of Food Safety and Hygiene courses (Level 1 and Level 2) in Catering, Manufacturing and Retail sectors to an internationally recognised standard. The courses can be conducted in English or Malay by a local Megamas employee.
The CIEH Level 1 Award in Food Safety is aimed at those new to the workplace who require a simple overview of a subject, before starting work or as part of an induction programme. CIEH Level 1 has been developed to raise awareness of key food safety issues and to provide employees with an induction to food hygiene, prior to undertaking the Level 2 Award in Food Safety.
The CIEH Level 2 Award in Food Safety in Catering is aimed at those in the workplace who participate in activities related to the subject area. CIEH Level 2 has been developed to address the growing need to make learning more relevant to specific business environments and meet the National Occupational Standards. It provides a flexible syllabus which enables training to be tailored to meet specific needs.
The course is ideal for anyone working in a catering, manufacturing or retail setting where food is prepared, cooked and handled.
