Food Hygiene Level 1 course for workers in every county, for €33 with nothing added at checkout. You will learn personal hygiene, cross-contamination and safe food storage, with free retakes and a certificate valid for three years.
Work through the whole of Module 1 with the original course images and wording — the same learning experience learners receive after enrolment.
5 modules in a clear order, then a short online assessment.
The basics of food hygiene, why it matters, the law and the harm contaminated food causes.
The four types of hazard: microbiological, allergenic, physical and chemical.
Controlling bacteria, temperature, high- and low-risk foods, deliveries, refrigeration and pests.
Hand and hair hygiene, protective clothing, bad habits and reporting illness.
Waste management, cleaning and disinfection, and the six stages of cleaning.
The assessment only asks about what the modules cover — nothing you have not been taught.
Work through each module at your own pace. Your progress is saved, so you can stop and come back later.
20 multiple-choice questions on what the modules cover. The answers are marked instantly.
If you fall short, review the material and try again — retakes are free and unlimited.
As soon as you pass, your certificate is issued to your account as a PDF you can print or send to your employer.
Written plainly, with the source named so you can check it yourself.
Food hygiene in Ireland is governed by EU Regulation (EC) No 852/2004 on the hygiene of foodstuffs, given effect by the European Communities (Hygiene of Foodstuffs) Regulations 2006, S.I. No. 369 of 2006. The Food Safety Authority of Ireland (FSAI) oversees enforcement, carried out by the HSE’s Environmental Health Service and other agencies.
The FSAI’s food safety training guidance sets out what food handlers should know at each level of their job — from induction to the skills needed to run a HACCP system. Your employer decides which level fits your role.
Inspectors can issue improvement notices, closure orders and prohibition orders, and closure orders are published by the FSAI. Good training and records help a business show due diligence.

Our 14-day money-back guarantee. If you are not happy with the course, email us within 14 days of your purchase and we will refund you in full. You do not need to give a reason. Your statutory cancellation rights. Under the European Union (Consumer Information, Cancellation and Other Rights) Regulations 2013 (S.I.
