Basic HACCP Training for Meat & Poultry Processors
October 5-7, 2009

Basic HACCP Training for Meat & Poultry Processors
To help Meat and Poultry Processors comply with USDA’s “Pathogen Reduction and Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP)” regulations, MSU’ s Department of Food Science, Nutrition and Health Promotion is offering a basic HACCP training course.
This basic course is designed for individuals who must have successfully completed a course of instruction in the application of the seven HACCP principals to meat and poultry product processing, including development of a HACCP plan for a specific product and record review. Individuals who attend and participate in the course will receive a certificate of course completion. Instructors for the course are trainers certified by the International Meat and Poultry HACCP Alliance and will follow the standardized training outline for the course.

The regulation states that certain functions be conducted by a HACCP trained individual. However, the HACCP trained individual does not have to be an employee of your establishment. That individual could be a consultant you employ to carry out these functions.
