Effective January 2010, the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, Drug and Safety Program, Chapter 24 mandate (N.J.A.C. 8:24) states:

“… at least one person in charge of Risk Type 3 food establishments shall be a certified food protection manager who has shown proficiency of required information through obtaining a food safety certificate by passing a food safety certification examination administered by an accredited certifying program recognized by the Conference for Food Protection.”

By attending this two day, 16-hour program and successfully passing an examination (with a score of 75% or higher), participants will receive ServSafe® Manager Training Certification, which satisfies this mandate.
