Description

This specification is for the content, technical development and delivery of two imported food training courses, on the subject of Sampling. These courses are aimed at EHOs, PHOs and TSOs (where they have responsibility for high-risk food of non-animal origin - feed is not to be covered as part of the course)
The course will comprise two separate modules, separated into two lots as outlined below, and we would like to invite suppliers to bid for one or both of the lots. The first lot is for an introductory online course, and the second lot is for a 2-day practical course, based partly either at a laboratory facility or port facility where sampling takes place.

An online course to be used as an introduction to the principles of sampling imported food, the reasons for sampling, and the legislative basis

LOT 2
A 2-day classroom and laboratory or port-based face-to-face course aimed at inland enforcement officers PHOs.
