About The Training

Risk analysis is central to the Codex Alimentarius framework for setting food standards. Within this, Risk Assessment provides the scientific foundation.

While hazard identification is often global (JECFA), exposure assessment must be country-specific, depending on local consumption patterns and contamination levels.

This training strengthens expertise to generate, use, and interpret data to safeguard consumer health and ensure fair trade.
