Participants learn to develop and implement a food defense program that prepares them to handle intentional contamination at their facility.

Instructors examine challenges that might arise at a food facility from intentional tampering, terrorism, or sabotage. The seminar includes hands-on workshops that provide a framework for solid food defense planning that can be tailored to individual facilities.

Issues addressed at the seminar relate directly to new customer requirements, the Food Safety Modernization Act, and audit schemes like GFSI.

Participants receive a complimentary copy of The AIB Guide to Food Defense.

Participants can also become an AIB Certified Food Defense Coordinator by completing the online verification test with a score of 80% or higher within 30 days of the seminar.
