MILFORD, Conn. — Subway is offering online ServSafe Food Safety Training and Certification courses for its franchisees and their staff, the company announced. ServSafe, developed by the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation (NRAEF), is recognized by more jurisdictions than any other food safety program in the country.
By partnering with the NRAEF, Subway is enabling its franchisees and their management staff to access the ServSafe food safety certification courses via the brand's Web-based training center, the University of Subway. The center has logged more than 165,000 course completions since its inception and offers more than 100 Subway-specific courses, available in several languages.
Advantages of the new online courses include lowering a franchisee's overall training costs, requiring less time away from the restaurant, the ability to study at work or at any Internet-enabled computer and allowing users to learn at their own pace in either English or Spanish, according to a news release.
