Certificate in Food Packaging

Food packaging must aim to contain food in an economical manner that meets consumer and industry demands, preserves food safety, and has the least negative impact on the environment. Packaging plays a variety of roles, and its significance in extending product shelf life by preventing product quality deterioration and guaranteeing product safety must be acknowledged.

The goal of the professional course on food packaging is to meet the demand for qualified food workers in the food packaging sector. The knowledge, direction, hands-on training, and certificate of off-course completion will offer the participant numerous opportunities in the field. Jobs such as packaging technician, production manager, supply chain operator, packaging team member, food packaging consultant, and many more would fulfil this.
