FSMA Produce Safety Grower Training- remote delivery and in Olathe

The University of Missouri Extension and Kansas State Research and

will take place on February 21 from 8AM-5PM. In order to receive a
certificate of training, you will have to attend the entire training and
for those of you joining online, we must be able to see a live video
feed of you at least periodically throughout the entire training (or you
need to speak or type into the chat when requested) to ensure that you
are engaged throughout the entire training. If joining remotely, you
must participate in the training on a device larger than your phone
(i.e. tablet or computer). Note that it is very important that you are
listening and engaged during the training to be eligible to receive the
certificate of training. If you are a covered farm under the FSMA
Produce Safety Rule and need the training, this course will meet that
requirement (for more information visit https://www.ksre.k-state.edu/foodsafety/produce/fsma/index.html). You will be required to return a course evaluation before you will receive your certificate of training.This
training is geared for produce growers in Kansas and Missouri (but
participants from other states are welcome as space allows) and other
regulatory or support personnel and will be limited to 30 participants.
