At the end of this course, you will need to complete a test that consists of 30 multiple choice questions.

If learners do not achieve the 75% pass mark, further attempts may be given by contacting our support team.
Upon completing the course, learners will be able to download a digital food hygiene certificate accredited by City & Guilds from Virtual College. If you have bought the posted certificate option, a high quality, seal embossed, certificate will be sent out on the next working day. This certification is universally recognised and can be used to provide evidence of food hygiene and safety training both internally and to external auditors. There is no set time for how long a certificate is valid for, but the accepted industry standard is for food hygiene certificates to be renewed every three years. However, some employers may require you to renew your certification more frequently than this.
