Course Curriculum
The detailed curriculum outline of our Food Allergy Awareness Training – Level 3 is as follows
Start by exploring the science behind food allergies and dietary sensitivities. The module examines immune responses, the differences between allergies, intolerances, and coeliac disease, and the wider context of allergen prevalence.
Food businesses need clear knowledge of their responsibilities when managing allergens. This section examines regulatory compliance, allergen labelling, business and staff responsibilities, and the role of regulatory oversight in food operations.
Effective allergen control starts with a structured approach to identifying and managing risks. Learners explore allergen policies, management plans, risk assessments, documentation, and systems for reviewing allergen controls.
The focus shifts to how allergen controls work during everyday food operations. Topics include supplier verification, ingredient checks, segregation, storage, preparation, labelling, and cleaning procedures designed to reduce cross-contact.
Strong allergen management depends on informed staff and clear communication. Learners examine staff training, communication with consumers, organisational awareness, and ways to encourage a consistent culture of allergen safety.
