The HACCP Workshops will be funded through Project HELIX and are aimed at micro-businesses, start-ups and SMEs.

Our technologists with extensive industry experience can help guide you and your business through the process of developing and implementing a HACCP plan. After this session, you will have a week to do some work on your own HACCPs.
- The second workshop will be held on the 15th June (9.30am – 12.30pm) and will involve reviewing your newly implemented HACCP plan.
These workshops can be used as informal training to demonstrate Continuing Professional Development, with a certificate of attendance awarded at completion.
