The UC Davis Postharvest Technology Center announced its popular Produce Safety: A Science-based Framework Workshop has a few spots left.

The workshop, organized by Trevor Suslow, will be held November 3-5 on the UC Davis campus. This 2 1/2-day workshop is an integrated approach to building a foundation of awareness and improved understanding of the current scientific basis for produce microbial safety systems and preventive controls. The content is designed to provide participants with a framework for decision-making on key topics common to industry guidance and standards as well as the multiple layers of evolving federal regulatory compliance rule-making requirements.

The course content is primarily designed for entering and junior level produce safety professional across the supply-chain and affiliated industries. Many others with an interest in produce safety as educators, managers, or policy developers will find the course content informative and unique.
