Grain Milling: Food Safety and HACCP Workshop

Grain Milling: Food Safety and HACCP Workshop
October 16-18, 2012, Manhattan, Kansas, USA

Time is running out to register for this informative workshop.  Don't miss out on this opportunity to learn the importance of food safety and being prepared with a HACCP Program.

 
Both quality and food safety are important in the grain and milling industry, and the Grain Milling: Food Safety and HACCP Workshop is designed to help differentiate between the two.  Kansas State University's International Grains Program (IGP) has partnered with AIB International and the International Association of Operative Millers (IAOM) to help make that happen.  From new employees to management personnel, the AIB HACCP course should be considered.  The course is scheduled to take place from October 16-18, 2012.

"The main purpose of this course is to educate people in the grain and milling industry about the importance of food product safety," says Ed Hitch, director of food safety education at AIB International.

Individuals should consider attending this course so they are aware of the potential hazards associated with the industry.  If they familiarize themselves with them, then they are able to put a product safety program into practice at their own facilities, Hitch says.  By doing this they can eliminate or reduce possible food safety issues.

Topics included in this course are:

The flour milling process
Essential prerequesite programs
Food safety hazards associated with cereal grains
How to develop a step-by-step process to implement and manage a HACCP program
The workshop will be held at the K-State Department of Grain Science's International Grains Program Conference Center, 1980 Kimball Avenue, 102 IGP Building, Manhattan, KS  66506.
