There are two levels of food certification courses that are required for different food facilities: The Person-in-Charge (PIC) Certification (Formerly Level One) and the Manager’s Certification (Formerly Level Two).

Person-in-Charge Certification

 

This certification covers the principles of food safety. A PIC certification is required for at least one person in charge per shift at a risk level I, II, III, and IV food service operation (FSO) and retail food establishment (RFE). Additionally, a PIC certification is required for at least one person per license at each event for high risk mobile FSOs and RFEs. Providers for these courses are approved by the Ohio Department of Health and can be found at the link below. PIC certificates should be maintained on site at the facility so our inspectors can verify requirements are met.

Manager’s Certification

This certification is a comprehensive food safety training that provides managers with in-depth knowledge of proper food safety practices for use in their facilities. Each risk level III and IV FSO and RFE is required to have at least one employee with supervisory and management responsibility that has obtained the Ohio Manager Certification in food protection. The Ohio Department of Health maintains a list of approved courses, providers, and exams for the Manager’s Certification. After taking and passing an approved course and exam, fill out the Application for Ohio Manager Certification in Food Protection (https://odh.ohio.gov/know-our-programs/food-safety-program/food-safety-certification/manager-certification-app) to obtain the Ohio Department of Health Manager’s Certificate

The image shows an example of an Ohio Department of Health Manager’s Certificate. The Certificate has the Ohio Department of Health Logo on the top and states the individual listed on the certificate “has successfully completed the certification course in Food Protection at” the location the course was taken. It is signed by the current Director of Health and has a certificate number in the bottom right corner.
