By the end of this training course, participants will be able to:
* Explain the objectives of root cause analysis as a procedure to find and evaluate the causes of problems within the food industry
* Use problem cause data collection tools applicable to food manufacturing
* Apply appropriate root cause analysis tools to food manufacturing
* Develop efficient corrective action and preventative action plans for food manufacturing
* Understand and be able to apply how CA, CAPA, and RCA are all managed under FSMS.
The participant will receive a certificate of successful completion for the course after passing a written knowledge test following the training course.
