Lesson 5 Contamination F

Training is an important part of a company’s food safety program. This training App is brought to you by the American Mushroom Institute (AMI) and focuses on the different activities that employees need to follow to help prevent mushroom contamination when working on a mushroom farm. There are several ways in which mushrooms become cross-contaminated on the farm. Employees will learn what practices they must follow and how they will help prevent cross contamination from happening on a mushroom production farm.

Each AMI Food Safety Training App includes interactive activities, videos and quizzes to ensure employees are engaged throughout the course. At the end of each App, there is a multiple choice quiz or an activity to verify the employee has properly learned the information presented in the App.

• The ABCs of Food Safety
