Frequently asked questions

Is a Level 1 or Level 2 food hygiene course right for me?

Level 1 suits new starters and lower-risk roles (front-of-house, retail, warehouse). If you prepare, cook or handle open food, choose our Level 2 Food Safety & Hygiene course.

Can I show this certificate to an environmental health officer?

Yes. The course is written to Food Standards Agency guidance, and your certificate is evidence of training you can show an employer or an environmental health officer. There is no official approval list for food hygiene courses: officers look at whether staff have been trained and supervised to a level that suits their work.

How long does the course take?

About 2 hours in total, and it is fully self-paced — you can stop and pick up where you left off on any device.

Does the certificate expire?

No, your certificate does not expire. The law sets no renewal date, but many employers look for a refresher about every three years, or sooner if your role changes.

Do I get my certificate straight away?

Yes — pass the end-of-course assessment and you can download your personalised certificate instantly.
