Learners follow a simple 7-step process to become certified:
  1. Registration – Purchase the course. Within 1–3 business days, go2HR will contact you to confirm.

  2. Finding an Invigilator – Find someone 19 years of age or older, who is not a family member or someone living in your household, to supervise your exam.

  3. Confirming Details – Provide go2HR with your shipping address and your invigilator's information so we can prepare and mail your course package.

  4. Getting Materials – Receive your printed learning materials by mail and study at your own pace. You have up to 6 months to complete the course.

  5. Completing Exam – Write the 50-question, closed-book exam, supervised by your invigilator.

  6. Mailing Exam Forms – Complete and mail your exam forms and materials back to go2HR for marking.

  7. Marking Exam – go2HR will mark your exam and notify you of your results. A minimum score of 70% is required to pass.

  8. Certificate – Successful learners will first receive a confirmation letter by mail, which serves as official proof of completion while your local Health Authority prepares and mails your FOODSAFE certificate. Certificates typically arrive within 4–6 weeks.
