Welcome to the Package Prepared Foodstuffs course. This program is designed to provide you with the essential knowledge and skills necessary to safely and effectively package a variety of food products.

Additionally, the course will cover environmental requirements for the packaging area to avoid food contamination, including temperature, humidity, ventilation controls, cleaning, and sanitising procedures.
Participants will also learn about protecting food from contaminants, pests, and foreign objects, as well as the features, characteristics, and uses of packaging materials for food. Specific packaging requirements for different food types and the use of recycled packaging materials will also be discussed, along with organisational food safety procedures relating to packaging food.

Furthermore, participants will gain practical experience in packaging and labelling various foodstuffs, including beverages, dairy products, dry goods, frozen goods, fruits and vegetables, and meat, poultry, or seafood. They will also learn to check the quality of foodstuffs against quality criteria, select and use aseptically treated packaging materials, package foodstuffs within commercial time constraints, and maintain the packaging work area in line with food safety environmental requirements.
