Testimonials

• "Finally a certification course that goes well beyond the multi-day seminar. This 5 course, one year, certification program gives an in depth review of food science and food manufacturing industry in a timely and relevant manner. As a QA director for a national food sanitation firm, I felt this course was so beneficial that our firm is rolling it out to our plant sanitation managers and other corp. executives as well."

• "An excellent introduction to food science and safety well suited for the working professional who wants to increase his or her knowledge. Dr. Culbertson and his staff are very knowledgeable and helpful, making themselves available through email and weekly chat sessions. These courses have given me both a broad understanding of food science and helped to narrow my focus for future learning."
