N.C. Cooperative Extension in Brunswick County is offering the Safe Plates course to promote food safety at the food service level. Food safety is the safeguarding or protection of food from anything that could harm consumers’ health. This comprehensive course is appropriate for food service managers and supervisory staff in restaurants, hospitals, nursing homes, childcare facilities, and other food-handling establishments.
The Safe Plate class will be September 22 and 29, 2025. These classes will meet at the N.C. Cooperative Extension Training Center at the Government Center in Bolivia from 9 a.m. until 4 p.m. on each day. This two-day training is recommended for those who are new to food service or have not taken a certification exam before. It is recommended, but not required, that participants attend both days. The registration fee is $125 per person. This includes all instruction, materials and the exam. Participants are encouraged to bring their own snacks and beverages. The certification exam will be given on the second day.
Safe Plates is a food safety certification course developed by North Carolina State University. Safe Plates for Food Managers is different from other food safety manager training because it is taught through case studies, storytelling, activities and discussion. This class is interactive and encourages participants to engage with the material. Food service managers successfully completing the exam will meet the 2022 FDA Food Code requirement for an ANSI (American National Standards Institution) approved Certified Food Protection Manager. Managers will receive a certificate to display in their operation which will verify to the local Environmental Health Department that they are in compliance. A certified person in charge (PIC) should be present at all times the establishment is in operation.
Instructors for the class will be Cheryle Jones Syracuse and Avery Ashley, Family and Consumer Science team members with N.C. Cooperative Extension in Brunswick County. Staff members from the Brunswick County Environmental Health will also be on-hand to answer questions.
The class will be taught in English and the book and handout materials are available in English only. The Food Safety Manager Certification test is available in English, Korean, Traditional Chinese and Spanish.
For more information or to register contact Avery Ashley at Brunswick County Center of the N. C. Cooperative Extension 910-253-2610. Pre-registration is required. Additional details at the County Website. Seating is limited to the first 30 registered.
