Why Choose ODH Approved License #89-188?

When it comes to regulatory compliance, not all training programs are created equal. In Ohio, food service establishments must utilize programs that are specifically approved by the Ohio Department of Health. ACE Food Handler operates under ODH License #89-188, ensuring that every certificate issued is legally valid and recognized by local health inspectors.

Holding this certification demonstrates that the Person in Charge (PIC) has a foundational understanding of food safety principles. This includes recognizing the symptoms of foodborne illnesses, understanding the importance of personal hygiene, and knowing the specific temperatures required to keep food safe. Without a valid ODH-approved certificate, your business could face unnecessary citations during health inspections.
