California Food Handlers Card

California Food Handler Card: What Is It?

Having a California Food Handlers Card, also known as a food handler card or food handler’s license, is an assurance to serve food to the public in a healthy manner in California and the US.

Food Handlers Card is a legal requirement in California, and government may impose fines and other sanctions if you don’t have one. However, a food safety course and a test are prerequisites for obtaining a food handler’s card in California. Getting a food handlers license:

1.  It is quick, simple, and inexpensive.
2. A two-hour course usually costs less than twenty dollars.
3.  Available in both online and in-person modes.

Ace Food Handler offers food safety training, which is slightly different from the others. However, our Food Handlers course covers the following topics:

1. Allergens
2. Cross-contamination
3. Cleaning methods that are up to code
4. Food hygiene is a matter of common sense.
5. Using the correct food storage methods
6. Personal hygiene habits that are safe and effective

In most cases, you can retake the exam three times after taking a course. To retake the test, you’ll have to retake the course first. You’ll receive your California Food Handlers Card after passing the exam.

ACE Food Handlers’ California Food Handler Card Program is Approved and ANSI Accredited

If you will be serving alcohol in your California Restaurant you will also need to take an RBS Training Program.

California RBS Training Program Approved Training Provider

Serving alcohol responsibly is a critical aspect of the hospitality industry in California. Whether you are a seasoned veteran or looking to enter the field, California Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) training is essential. In California, it will soon be mandatory for all licensed establishments to serve alcoholic beverages on-premise. The legislation enacting this mandatory measure takes effect on July 1, 2022. Any alcohol server or manager who is not licensed is subject to fines and other consequences.

Once you’ve registered for a class, some of the topics you can expect to learn about are:

• Dangers of serving minors
• Dangers of over-serving patrons
• How to reduce alcohol-related harm

Upon completing the RBS training course, you must successfully pass California Alcohol and Beverage Control’s (ABC) examination within 60 days. This training mandate will impact approximately one million workers throughout California.

At ACE, we offer RBS training entirely online for only $12. Sign up today!

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have to do RBS training?

Suppose you have an “on-premises” license to sell alcohol in your establishment or serve alcohol in a licensed establishment. In that case, a new hire must complete RBS certification within sixty days of their start date.

What is the difference between the RBS and LEAD programs?

According to the ABC, RBS, or responsible beverage service, trains workers serving alcohol at licensed locations in skills that help reduce alcohol-induced harm within their communities. RBS is mandatory as of July 1, 2022. Whereas LEAD, which stands for Licensee Education on Alcohol and Drugs, is voluntary and teaches practical knowledge on responsible serving and preventive information to reduce drug use in establishments.

How much is the exam?

The exam costs $3 and is offered in English and Spanish.

Does RBS certification expire?

Yes. An RBS certification expires after three years, and it must be renewed before expiration for it to remain valid.
