Upon successful completion of the course, you will be sent a Certificate of Completion. A notification by Nelson Farms that you have completed the course successfully will also be sent to the NYS Dept. of Ag & Mkts Food Safety Division for inclusion in their database.

NYS Dept. Ag & Mkts mandates that any operation that has a 20-C processing license must take a food safety education course every two (2) years or once every five (5) years if you complete the course and take an accredited certification exam. The course offers the information to take the Certified Food Safety Manager Exams from the National Register of Food Safety Professionals (NRFSP).

The test must be administered by a certified proctor. That can be done at Morrisville State College with our instructor or you would need to have a certified proctor administer the exam to you. We can assist you on getting someone registered to become a certified proctor.
