Food Packaging Certificate: Packaging and Preservation

Responding to the vital need for quality and safety in the evolving food sector, our inaugural course in the Food Packaging Certificate, focuses on cutting-edge packaging and preservation techniques to elevate industry standards and meet client demands.

What you will learn

Within this course, packaging requirements of different foods will be discussed. Different food products vary in composition, affecting spoilage type and shelf life differently. The ways packaging can be used to control deteriorative reactions throughout the supply chain will be discussed for a variety of products. We will also highlight many strategies used in industry as well as material selection. We have divided this course into modules based on the general food type, such as dairy or meat or low- and intermediate-moisture foods.
