The senior SQF credential, delivered privately 1-on-1 and built around your site. For those who design, lead, and develop a certified SQF system, with a clear plan to reach or maintain certification.
The Certified SQF Manager and Implementor course prepares you to design, lead, and own a certified SQF system: the full SQF Food Safety Code, the System Elements, and sector GMPs. It is delivered 1-on-1, in English, and customized to your site and certification roadmap.
Every trainee who completes the course is added to the TrustBite registry of certified professionals, a public directory employers, auditors, and project leads use to verify credentials and find qualified people. The certificate keeps working for you after the course ends.
Eight modules, taught live and 1-on-1 in the order below. Every module is worked through on your own site, products and markets, so the examples are yours from the first session.
The system elements, the GMP module for your industry sector, the Fundamentals programmes and the path to certification.
The food safety policy, responsibilities, food safety culture, management review and what the practitioner must be able to do.
Document and record control, specifications, supplier approval, contract manufacturing and contract service providers.
HACCP the SQF way, the food safety plan, the food quality plan if you want it, and validation and verification.
Product identification, trace and withdrawal exercises, the recall procedure, the food defence plan and the food fraud vulnerability assessment.
Site and equipment, personnel hygiene, pest control, cleaning, allergen management and environmental monitoring.
The desk audit, the site audit, scoring and ratings, nonconformities, the unannounced audit and the SQF assessment database.
The system elements and your sector's GMP module checked against your site, with a written action plan to certification.
We run the course as a gap assessment of your own site against the system elements and your sector's GMP module. Each session ends with findings and actions for your site, so the plan in Module 8 is complete by the last session.

On completion you receive a TrustBite-recognised Certified SQF Manager and Implementor certificate with a unique verification ID, and you are listed in the TrustBite registry of certified professionals. The registry is a public directory that employers, auditors, and project leads use to verify credentials and find qualified people, so the certificate keeps working for you after the course ends.
The certificate is valid for 3 years. After that it can be renewed by completing a short online refresher quiz for €50, and the updated certificate is issued automatically and your registry listing is kept current.
The course runs over 3 to 5 weeks of private 1-on-1 sessions, scheduled around your working hours so it fits around production and audit activity instead of interrupting it.
