Proton

Cost $15.00

Proton is a beginner level education program that has been developed to increase awareness of food safety in both food premises such as restaurants, institutions and the community.

The Proton program was designed to help persons qualify for a Food Handler Training Certificate. This self-study guide helps you to prepare at your own pace to write the Food Handler Training Certification Exam.

Proton emphasizes H.A.C.C.P. (Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point) concepts which are an integral component of the food service industry. There are several advantages of becoming a certified food handler. For instance many food premises operators will hire a certified food handler over someone who is not. Managers in the food industry can also use proton to monitor the areas of food safety.

The exam consists of 50 multiple choice questions and should take no more than one hour to complete. The minimum passing mark is 70%, (35/50).

See below for a list of pre-scheduled examination dates and times. Call to register and at the time of booking your examination, please have available the receipt number (which is provided at the point-of-sale) and the I.D. code number on the outside cover of your Proton book.
