TLC delivers the Food Handlers course by distance or by class.

With distance education you will be sent learning guides via the post and all correspondence will be by way of your preferred option – email, phone or mail. Although you will have access to phone and email support you will not be visited in the workplace.
This mode of study is self paced requiring you to manage your own study time.

For workplace groups, the Food Handlers course can be offered by way of face-to-face classroom delivery and is at present only available in QLD.  We can tailor a program to suit your client’s needs and schedules.

For individuals, TLC will advertise on our website when a class has been scheduled.

This one day class can be facilitated on your job site, or in a TLC nominated venue and you will be trained and assessed through a combination of group discussions, personal reflections, trainer lead discussions, a learning guide and practice scenarios.  Class based is a very interactive and supportive mode of study.
