  Foodborne illness outbreaks are no joke. Just ask any brand that endures an outbreak among customers… and the national media feeding frenzy that ensues when that outbreak hits the news.
  When training is engaging, entertaining, and memorable, it significantly lowers the risk that your restaurant will be the next foodborne illness headline in the national news. You can breathe new life into your food safety training program that makes training more impactful with these seven tips.
  Mobile training increases participation, because your employees can learn from anywhere at their convenience, whether they’re at work or at home.
  Partnerships with compliance training course providers for easy and cost-effective deployment of content across stores.
  Responsive design tools that automatically adjust the layout and orientation-based on different mobile devices — smartphones, laptops, or tablets.
  Create accessibility reports to save time and money by narrowing your list of mobile learning breakpoints.
  Are all your employees compliant with state food safety regulations? A food safety training program is not complete without documented certification. This ensures that staff members have proper safety training and licenses to serve food in compliance with the law. Restaurants need to track certification compliance across all locations and manage employee certification renewal dates.
  Make it easy on yourself by deploying a learning management system with these training certification management capabilities:
  Track, organize, and report on training participation, certification, achievements and compliance for each employee.
  Receive 30/60/90-day notices when employees need to retake their certification courses and assign training dates.
  In a perfect world, employees would consume training modules with gusto. But really, they often need a gentle nudge. Enter cool rewards that supercharge their motivation and make it impossible to resist the lure of learning. And employees will change their behavior for a desirable reward — and bragging rights.
  To be effective, executing food safety practices needs to follow a prescribed workflow. Training employees to perform their jobs according to a specific task list that upholds food safety standards will help reinforce the specific level of detail needed to meet standards.
  Learning management systems like Clarifi Talent Development features on-the-job checklists as part of courses. Users build courses to include on the job checklists to take knowledge team members gained in the training and use it on the job.
  Continuous learning opportunities help keep employees from feeling stagnant, bored, or stuck in their careers. Restaurants can leverage all employee training programs, including food safety, to inspire staff members to cross train for other positions and move up in the organization. The right employee food safety training program will support employee advancement by tracking the skills they gain along their training path.
  What’s more, managers can create personalized learning paths for individual employees to acquire the skills and knowledge they need for their preferred job. Helping them move forward creates a win-win for everyone.
  Allergen training laws are making their way across the U.S. — and the right online training program can help your establishment stay ahead of the trends, such as creating courses that ensure staff members understand your menus! With the right training application, you can establish a food allergy protocol, and build courses and quizzes that train all team members to follow it.
  Easily upload your own branded content or utilize third-party content to ensure your staff knows what to do to protect guests with food allergies.
