NSW FOOD SAFETY SUPERVISOR REFRESHER COURSE - $75
SITSS00069 – Food Safety Supervision Skill Set
This Food Safety Supervisor (FSS) refresher course is for learners who already hold a NSW Food Safety Supervisor Certificate (with the unit codes SITXFSA001 and SITXFSA002 ONLY) that is about to expire or has expired less than 90 days ago. If your certificate expired more than 90 days ago, this course is not appropriate for your circumstances, and you will need to complete the full NSW FSS course here.
NSW Food Safety Supervisor certificates have a validity period of five years from the date of issuance. To obtain a new certificate, you must renew your NSW FSS training. This course helps current or recently expired FSS certificate holders obtain re-certification.
Upon successful completion, you will receive a Statement of Attainment SITSS0069 Food Safety Supervisor containing the latest accredited Food Safety Supervisor units, along with a renewed NSW Food Safety Supervisor Certificate (the Blue and Orange Certificate) valid for five (5) years.
This course is not valid for those who have retail food safety units such as SIRRFSA001. Please make sure you check your original units prior to enrolling.
NSW RTO Approval Number 29586
