Everything you need to know about the Delaware Food Protection Manager program
Food Protection Manager Certification
A Food Protection Manager or a Person in Charge is an individual who is responsible for the operation of a food establishment, including food preparation, packaging, storage and service.
They are also required to demonstrate a proficiency in required knowledge to the regulatory authority. This is usually achieved by passing an exam that is part of an ANAB-CFP accredited program.
The Userve Food Protection Manager Certification Exam is designed to assess your knowledge of food safety as specified in the latest version of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Code and in accordance with the criteria and standards established through the Conference for Food Protection (CFP).
Individuals who pass the exam have demonstrated the required level of competency and are awarded certification. You must pass the Food Protection Manager Certification Exam every five years (or within the time frame specified by state regulations) to maintain certification as a Food Protection Manager.
Userve Food Protection Manager Certification identifies to regulators, employers and the public that you are committed to food safety and have demonstrated the minimum knowledge required to keep food safe and protect the public from foodborne illness.
This program is nationally accredited by the ANSI National Accreditation Board (ANAB) and complies with the CFP Standards for Accreditation of Food Protection Manager Certification Programs.
ANAB is the ANSI National Accreditation Board. It is a non-profit organization that oversees administration and coordination of standards and technical regulations in the U.S. ANAB provides a framework for fair standard development and represents the interests of more than 270,000 organizations and 30 million professionals worldwide.
The Conference for Food Protection (CFP) is a non-profit organization. The structure of the conference provides a representative and equitable partnership among regulators, industry, academia, professional organizations, and consumers to identify problems, formulate recommendations, and develop and implement practices that ensure food safety. The CFP meets at least biennially to provide that forum.
Userve’s program is ANAB-CFP accredited.
Requirements & Access
The training takes most people a few hours to complete. The course length can vary from person to person based on previous experience, English language skills and computer literacy. Keep in mind that you can train at your own pace and start and stop as often as you like.
In addition, the Certification Exam has a time limit of 90 minutes.
You will get 12 months' access from the date of enrollment.
There are no prerequisites for taking the Food Manager Certification Course or Certification Exam. Our program is simple, fast and engaging.
You can access our program on any internet-enabled device with a modern web browser so you can complete training anywhere, at any time.
However, to take the exam, it is necessary to access it using a desktop or laptop computer. For more details, please refer to this article.
What's Included?
The training takes the topics shown in the ‘What to expect’ section of this page and breaks it down into 29 easy-to-follow lessons. The content aligns with the latest version of the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) Food Code and equips you with the knowledge you need to pass the Certification Exam.
To meet compliance standards, the questions for the exam are developed independently from the course materials. This approach ensures a fair assessment of your overall understanding and application of the subject matter. You will need to draw upon your personal experiences and the knowledge gained from the course to respond to the questions effectively.
Programs that include training come with a student handbook with notes, handy posters and templates to use on the job as well as end-of-lesson quizzes to check your understanding of the material along the way.
With the Management Toolkit you will gain access to over 40 downloadable resources designed to make managing your food business operations much easier. They contain allergen information, staff and equipment management checklists as well as HACCP plan templates.
Examination
There are a few things you need to be aware of before starting the exam. Please refer to this article to understand the workplace and environment setup requirements along with some Exam Dos and Don’ts.
The format of the final exam is multiple choice. Depending on the program option you choose, you have multiple attempts to pass the exam and you must score at least 70%. Re-attempts are not available immediately; there is a time delay of 24 hours between the first and second attempt and then 7 days between each subsequent attempt.
The Certification Exam is recorded and monitored by a proctor. A proctor is a person who remotely observes while you complete the exam. The proctor has the right to terminate the exam if you engage in or are suspected of engaging in any misconduct or cheating.
We understand that some people may have special requirements when completing online exams. If you require exam accommodations, please:

The Practice Exam is a shorter version of the Certification Exam. It will allow you to familiarize yourself with our testing environment and assess your knowledge. You will be allowed unlimited access to the Practice Exam.
Certification Information
