Introduction

The "Training Program for the Professional Food Service  Sanitarian" was inspired by the FDA's "Food Safety Information Package for Sanitarians". Various branches of the federal government, the National Restaurant Association, several colleges and universities, professional organizations, and industry are all direct sources of information for the materials contained herein. The Michigan Department of Agriculture is deeply indebted to and specifically thanks those agencies for their contributions.

 

Development of the training program was made possible by an Innovative Food Safety Pilot Program grant from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), Office of Regulatory Affairs (ORA), Division of Federal-State Relations. The grant was part of the federal Food Safety Initiative. 

 

Special thanks to Tom Crook for developing the training program, Dr. John Tilden for coordinating the grant and working closely with the contractor to achieve a quality product, and to Marilyn Weber for providing valuable program editing skills.

 

Members of the Food Safety Training and Education Alliance (FSTEA), under the general direction of Dr. Ernest Julian, Rhode Island Department of Health, kindly reviewed the content of this program for technical accuracy.

 

Recognition and appreciation is given to the following "Training Program for the Professional Food Service Sanitarian" committee members:
