An approved course is the one taught by Alabama Extension or any American National Standards Institute (ANSI) accredited food safety program. This course will be offered for FREE as a part of the Empowering Farmers Project. This project was supported all, or in part, by the Food Safety Outreach Program a grant from the National Institute of Food and Agriculture, United States Department of Agriculture.
