Objectives: The Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) requires facilities processing any type of animal food (complete feed or ingredients) to comply with new current good manufacturing practices and to implement a written animal food safety plan developed and overseen by a "preventive controls qualified individual (PCQI)." This course is the standardized training developed by the Food Safety Preventive Controls Alliance. It is accepted by Food and Drug Administration (FDA) as meeting the requirements of PCQI designation. The course content will provide knowledge of the FSMA animal preventive controls rule, and training for creation of an effective animal food safety plan.

Certification: Certificates, acknowledged as compliant with FDA requirements, will be issued to participants successfully completing the course. Completion is dependent upon attendance for all sessions as listed on the schedule. Missing any part of the program will result in non-compliance and a certificate will not be issued.
