HACCP Level 3 – HACCP for Supervisors & Managers

Course overview

This course develops the knowledge and practical judgement needed to apply preventive food-safety controls across real catering and handling processes. The learning sequence begins with haccp team and product description, then develops the tools and decisions involved in intended use and flow-diagram confirmation. Participants connect these foundations with the remaining modules and complete applied work focused on validation, verification and record keeping.

The programme is intended for food handlers, catering supervisors, food-safety personnel and managers selecting the stated level. Examples are examined from both the person delivering the work and the person reviewing its adequacy. Participants practise identifying the relevant requirement, gathering evidence, recognising uncertainty and documenting a justified recommendation. The emphasis and level of challenge follow the approved supervisory level and the stated duration of 2 Days.

Learning combines facilitator explanation, structured questions, case analysis and practical outputs that can be reviewed against the objectives. Corporate groups can use agreed, anonymised procedures and records to make the discussion relevant to their own operations. Exercises distinguish a training recommendation from an authorised workplace decision: local law, client requirements, contracts, engineering standards and manufacturer instructions remain applicable. The closing activity produces a specific improvement or review plan, with responsibilities and evidence requirements that participants can discuss with their own management.

Why this course matters

The course connects haccp team and product description with validation, verification and record keeping. Participants practise making the reasoning and evidence behind an operational decision clear enough for others to review.

Learning objectives

• Explain the scope of haccp team and product description.
• Identify the key requirements for intended use and flow-diagram confirmation.
• Apply a structured approach to hazard analysis and control selection.
• Evaluate evidence relating to critical control point determination.
• Develop a practical output for validated critical limits.
• Justify recommendations concerning monitoring procedures and responsibilities.
• Review responsibilities for corrective action and affected-product control.
• Prepare an implementation plan for validation, verification and record keeping.

Who should attend

food handlers, catering supervisors, food-safety personnel and managers selecting the stated level

Prerequisites

Relevant workplace exposure and familiarity with basic subject terminology are recommended. Advanced technical workshops require suitable prior knowledge; participant suitability and any specialist preparation are confirmed before booking.

Course curriculum

1. HACCP team and product description

   HACCP builds on effective prerequisite programmes and a clear understanding of the product, intended use and process flow.

2. Intended use and flow-diagram confirmation

   HACCP builds on effective prerequisite programmes and a clear understanding of the product, intended use and process flow.

3. Hazard analysis and control selection

   Describe a risk as a credible scenario with causes, an event and consequences in a defined context.

4. Critical control point determination

   HACCP builds on effective prerequisite programmes and a clear understanding of the product, intended use and process flow.

5. Validated critical limits

   HACCP builds on effective prerequisite programmes and a clear understanding of the product, intended use and process flow.

6. Monitoring procedures and responsibilities

   Assurance asks whether the organisation has adequate grounds to trust its arrangements.

7. Corrective action and affected-product control

   Begin with a clear description of the problem: what happened, where, when and how it differs from the expected result.

8. Validation, verification and record keeping

   HACCP builds on effective prerequisite programmes and a clear understanding of the product, intended use and process flow.

Practical learning

A catering operation supplies a dining hall and remote work locations. One delivery record is incomplete, staff report a change in packing arrangements and the supervisor cannot establish which meals were affected. The team must protect consumers and review the control system.

Participants examine this fictional case through the course modules, identify missing information and prepare a justified response. Corporate examples can be adapted within the agreed scope.

Assessment approach

Knowledge checks assess understanding, while a practical case output tests application. Review criteria are accuracy, use of evidence, recognition of limitations, clear responsibility and feasibility. The facilitator provides feedback; joining instructions confirm attendance requirements and any formal pass criteria before delivery.

Completion information

An Al-Warkaa professional-development completion certificate may be issued against the confirmed attendance and assessment requirements. This is not a claim of professional licensure, regulatory authorisation or third-party accreditation.
