Why ServSafe®?
What makes ServSafe® training and certification the choice of our industry? The answers below make all the difference.
Why ServSafe Training?
Because you need the highest standard of food safety training and certification.
Because the ServSafe Program has evolved to meet the most urgent food safety training challenges in our industry.
Because ServSafe is a better way to learn. It's more engaging, for greater comprehension and better application. Our instructors have an 89% success rate for passing the exam on the first try!
Because every foodservice operation is required by the State of Connecticut to designate a Person in Charge (PIC) who is certified as a Certified Food Protection manager (formerly known as the QFO), whose responsibilities not only include food safety, but staff training as well. There must be a certified person in charge on site during all shifts. Non-certified Alternates will only be allowed during non-peak hours with minimal food prep. You can view the Food Safety Regulations here. The Connecticut Restaurant Association offers the ServSafe Manager professional development seminar, with certification by the National Restaurant Association.
Because food safety impacts your customers, your employees and your business. With so much on the line, the right preparation means everything.
Why ServSafe Certification?
Because the ServSafe Food Protection Manager Certification is accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI)-Conference for Food Protection (CFP).
Because the ServSafe Food Protection Manager Certification Exam is valid, reliable and legally defensible.
Because it's certification the industry trusts. In fact, more than 3 million ServSafe Food Protection Manager certifications have been awarded to date.

Learn to prevent an outbreak of a food borne illness in your operation while earning your mandatory state CFPM certification.
