Their objective is to educate, inspire, motivate, challenge, and encourage food professionals to better understand food safety management and to help increase job effectiveness and productivity with ethics and integrity.

Reviews for Food Safety Short Stories: 87 Real-Life Cases

'This year I was back in Namibia at NUST to give a block course in Food Safety for the 4th year EHS students. For the first time I used Food Safety Short Stories, from which I selected about 30 cases and prepared them in a way that they were suitable for group work and corresponded to the level of the students. The focus was on 'learning to think' and not on reproducing existing knowledge. It was a complete success and the students appreciated the lively practical cases and how to proceed to find out causes of the describes problems, to investigate and derive preventive consequences.'- Professor Rudolf Schmitt (Retired), Haute Ecole Valaisanne, Switzerland
