ISO 22000:2018 Basic (Foundation)

About this course

This ISO 22000:2018 Awareness program gives you a clear, practical introduction to Food Safety Management Systems. You will learn how the standard is structured, why FSMS matters for consumers and brands, and how clauses connect from context and leadership through hazard control, PRP thinking, monitoring, and continual improvement.

Sessions are live on Zoom with a food-safety expert. Concepts are explained in simple language with industry examples so beginners and plant staff can speak the same FSMS language as auditors and managers. Completing the batch unlocks a certificate of attainment for this Awareness level.

• Explain the purpose and structure of ISO 22000:2018
• Describe core food-safety principles and FSMS vocabulary
• Recognise how PRPs, hazards, and operational controls fit together
• Identify who is responsible for food safety in a typical organisation
