Course Syllabus

Half-day overview covering the four foundational HACCP concepts every team member should understand.

MODULE 1

What HACCP Is & Why It Matters

HACCP origins (NASA / Pillsbury, 1960s). Codex Alimentarius principles. Why preventive food safety beats inspection-based food safety. Modern HACCP applications.

MODULE 2

Food Safety Hazards

The three hazard categories — biological (bacteria, viruses, parasites), chemical (cleaning agents, allergens, pesticides), physical (glass, metal, plastic). Risk vs hazard concept.

MODULE 3

Critical Control Points (CCPs)

What a CCP is. How CCPs differ from PRPs (prerequisite programs). Common CCPs in catering (cooking, cooling, hot holding) and manufacturing (pasteurization, metal detection).

MODULE 4

Monitoring, Records & Your Role

Why monitoring records exist. The role of every team member in HACCP-controlled operations. Why filling out records accurately matters — not just paperwork.

The 7 HACCP Principles (Awareness Level)

Level 1 introduces the 7 Codex HACCP principles. Deeper application is taught at Level 2 and 3.

1️⃣

Conduct Hazard Analysis

Identify what could go wrong — biological, chemical, physical hazards across all production steps.

2️⃣

Determine CCPs

Where in the process can a hazard be controlled? Decision tree to identify CCPs vs PRPs.

3️⃣

Establish Critical Limits

Measurable criteria for each CCP — temperatures, times, pH, concentrations. The pass/fail thresholds.

4️⃣

Establish Monitoring

How often, by whom, with what equipment. Real-time check that critical limits are being met.

5️⃣

Corrective Actions

What to do when monitoring shows a critical limit was exceeded. Product disposition decisions.

6️⃣

Verification Procedures

Periodic checks that the system works — calibration, audit, microbiological testing, document review.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is HACCP Level 1 enough for food handlers?
No. Food handlers operating HACCP-controlled processes (monitoring CCPs, recording temperatures, etc.) need at least HACCP Level 2. Level 1 is awareness only — for team members in HACCP-controlled operations who do not directly manage CCPs.
What is the difference between Food Safety Level 1 and HACCP Level 1?
Food Safety Level 1 covers food safety basics (hygiene, contamination, temperatures). HACCP Level 1 covers the HACCP system specifically (principles, CCPs, monitoring). Different focus areas — often delivered together as combined induction training.
Who typically takes HACCP Level 1?
Production line staff, warehouse staff, quality assistants, maintenance technicians, logistics teams working in operations with HACCP-based systems. Awareness helps them respect the system even if they do not directly run CCPs.
Can HACCP Level 1 be combined with Food Safety Level 1?
Yes — we frequently combine both Level 1 awareness courses in a single half-day session for new-hire onboarding. Cost-efficient bundle for food manufacturers and large catering operations.
Is the certificate recognized outside the UAE?
Yes. Highfield certificates are UK-regulated qualifications recognized internationally. CheckCert online verification system allows employers and regulators worldwide to verify authenticity.
How long is the certificate valid?
Highfield certificates do not technically expire, but industry best practice is to refresh every 3 years to stay current with regulations and HACCP best practices.
Can we deliver in Arabic / Urdu / Hindi / Tagalog?
Yes — multilingual trainers across these primary languages. HACCP awareness depends on staff actually understanding the content. First-language delivery dramatically improves retention.
How much does Level 1 HACCP cost?
Cost varies by delivery mode (on-site vs open course), participants, language. Transparent per-engagement quotes. Get a free quote.
