The goals of the Implementing SQF course are to:

  • Learn about the updates in Edition 8 of the SQF Code and the difference with Edition 7.2.
  • Describe SQF system elements and mandatory elements
  • Implement and maintain SQF systems
  • Validate and verify your food safety plan within the SQF system and meet FSMA requirements

SQF Code, Edition 8
Introduces a new approach for assessing individual food industry sectors with customized requirements in separate, stand-alone Codes: Food Safety Fundamentals, Primary Production (Produce), Manufacturing, Distribution, Food Packaging, Retail, and Quality.

The most notable change to the structure of the program is the separation of the food safety and quality requirements into individual assessments, customized for each industry segment and covering more than 30 supplier and food sector categories: produce and livestock; manufacturing; distribution; manufacturer of food packaging and a new program specific to food retail.
