Food Safety Risk Analysis has emerged as an adaptable tool to aid decision makers at all levels. This method is widely promoted internationally; in fact, risk analysis expertise has become a necessity for both domestic and international problem solving and dispute resolution.

How can food safety professionals learn to speak the language of risk analysis, and begin to apply it to their organizations?

One solution is to take special courses that train professionals.


The JIFSAN Food Safety Risk Analysis Professional Development Training Program arose from the need for risk analysis expertise among the regulatory and scientific communities of the federal food safety agencies. As the language, tools, and techniques of risk analysis have become more widely utilized, the demand has grown to include professionals across a broad spectrum of private, public and academic interests.

Deadlines are quickly approaching for distance learning and classroom training lasting from one day to three weeks. Arm yourself with knowledge; don’t let your organization miss this opportunity.
