Do you regularly cook outdoors?

Keeping food safe and complying with the legal requirements in an outdoor setting can be a minefield.

By taking Part 1 of this course online, followed by Part 2 -  a practical session in an outdoor setting, you can store, prepare and serve food outdoors with confidence.  

This course is designed for those who cook or supervise others when cooking over a campfire and is particularly suited to Forest School leaders, Scout and Guide leaders and those providing outdoor catering.


Then Outdoor Food Safety ITC Level 2 course is for you!

This online course is Part 1 of a 2 part course and can be completed on any PC or mobile device. Learners can study at their own pace and log in and out as often as they wish.

It's been designed for those who are storing, preparing and cooking or supervising others to do the same in an outdoor setting 

Upon completion of this course, you will be able to enrol in Part 2 of the course which takes place in an outdoor setting.  Once both parts are completed, you will be able to prepare and cook food that is safe for consumption.
