The American Feed Industry Association and Eurofins are jointly hosting two essential animal feed programs this fall in Des Moines, Iowa.
The \"Hazard Analysis Critical Control Points Training for the Animal Food Industry\" is on November 10th and 11th and the \"FAMI-QS Awareness in Feed Safety Program: Solutions for the Specialty Feed and Mixture Industry\" is on November 12th and 13th.
Each course is limited to only 25 participants so early booking is advised.
The HACCP course focuses on developing and implementing an animal food safety plan based on the principles of HACCP, whilst the Eurofins training is based on the Codex Alimentarius HACCP guidelines, which formed the foundation for future Global Food Safety Initiative approved safety schemes.
The early-bird rate for the HACCP course, available until October 9th, is USD 550 for AFIA members and USD 650 for non-members. To register online, click here.
The two-day FAMI-QS workshop is ideal for individuals affected by the new regulatory requirements and seeking FAMI-QS certification. Henry Turlington, AFIA director of quality and manufacturing regulatory affairs, and Alan Baumfalk of Eurofins Food Safety Systems, will discuss the history of FAMI-QS; the importance of FAMI-QS globally; how to implement the FAMI-QS code; European Union regulations and compliance; crisis management; and steps for planning an audit.
The early-bird rate for the FAMI-QS workshop, available until October 9th, is USD 425 for AFIA members and USD 525 for non-members. To register online, click here.
