Foreign Supplier Verification Program (FSVP) Course 7/6/22 (2 – days): Westwood, NJ

July 6, 2022 @ 8:30 am - July 7, 2022 @ 4:30 pm

$990

Are you the U.S. owner or consignee, or the U.S. agency or representative of the foreign owner or consignee of the food offered for import at the time of entry, as confirmed in a signed statement of consent? If you are either of these entities, you are an “importer” as defined by FDA and you are subject to the FSVP Rule. FSVP is an FDA ruling that importers must have in place to verify that their foreign suppliers produce food in a manner that provides the same level of public health protection as the preventive controls or produce safety regulations in the United States. This FDA ruling is intended to ensure that the supplier’s food is not adulterated and is not misbranded with respect to allergen labelling. This official course curriculum was produced by the Food Safety Preventive Controls Alliance (FSPCA).

This course will also focus on how COVID-19 affects food safety, and what measures your company should take to protect employee health and safety. We’ve also included back-to-work strategies (food safety focus) based on the CDC and FDA guidelines.
