What our past students have to say…
Sue took the class with just one person. I couldn't
be more greatfull. Sue made the class so easy to
learn and made sure I knew what I needed to to
pass the class - Ryan Zyla , southern eats
If I had to take this class again it
would be with Sue. She is the epitome of
what an instructor is suppose to be. I
had fun learning and she explained in
depth not only for the one day class but
made sure I understood everything and lessons with me in life. I appreciate you, and would refer any employees and friends to your class. Thank you so much. - Sylvia Buckson, edible arrangements
Class size was small, which I really liked. Also Susan
was very informative and portrayed the material in a
very managable way! - Ramez Saba, BelloVittos
Susan Farace does an excellent job with the ServSafe training. She is so easy to understand, and explains procedures so that students really learn the information. I really appreciate Susan's professional training, and her way of relating the content to real life situations. I look forward to future trainings with Susan!! - Lisa, Harford County Office on Aging
I found this class to be very informative, straight to
the point and without a lot of extra fluff. I would
recommend this class for serious minded people
working in the food industry. - Greg Irby, Smoke-N-Wheels BBQ
I wish I would of took my first class with you! You
definitely break it down better then my employer!
Thanks for the study guide. - Michelle Gaydos ,
