All seven HACCP principles. Hands-on plan development.

This course goes beyond theory. You'll build a working HACCP plan using your own facility's processes and hazards.

Principle 1

Hazard Analysis

Identify and evaluate biological, chemical, and physical hazards at every step in your production process.

Principle 2

Critical Control Points

Determine the CCPs where control is essential to prevent, eliminate, or reduce hazards to acceptable levels.

Principle 3

Critical Limits

Establish the maximum or minimum values that must be met at each CCP to keep the product safe.

Principle 4

Monitoring Procedures

Design monitoring systems that keep each CCP under control. Know what to measure, how often, and by whom.

Principle 5

Corrective Actions

Develop corrective action procedures for when monitoring shows a CCP is out of control.

Principle 6

Verification Procedures

Confirm that the HACCP system is working effectively through audits, testing, and review.

Principle 7

Record Keeping

Maintain the documentation and records that demonstrate your HACCP system is operating as designed.
