Common Questions
It's the same thing! Always Food Safe is comparable to ServSafe as they both have ANSI accreditation status. There are other training providers who have also attained ANSI accreditation.
All ANSI-accredited companies have gone through a rigorous checking process to ensure they meet the requirements. The course content is the same across providers, although chapter headings and the order of the chapters may vary. All courses include cooking temperatures, fridge/freezer temperatures, bacterial multiplication, cleaning, and pest control because these items must be in-line with current Government guidelines. (FDA Food Code 2017).
Please note that Always Food Safe's Food Handlers Certificate is not recognized in certain states and jurisdictions. See full list of exceptions here. These exceptions are consistent with other food safety training providers. The Food Manager Certificate is recognized in all 50 states.
You will need to defer to the state or city-preferred food safety training for food handlers. FDA law requires that at least one Certified Food Protection Manager be on-site during any shift, which is why Food Manager Certificate is accepted in all states. For Food Handlers Certificate, the process will vary depending on the local health department.
