If you sell into Europe, source ingredients globally, or support customers with international requirements, you need more than U.S.-only context.
This module helps you understand what “good” looks like in the European market so you can anticipate expectations, reduce compliance surprises, and communicate more confidently with customers and partners.
In this module, you will get a practical introduction to the legislative framework that shapes food and drink operations in Europe. You will learn how this regulatory environment differs from the U.S. context and how those differences affect day-to-day food safety management.
You will also explore European consumer attitudes and trends, how industry controls are expressed through codes of practice and guidelines, and how these connect to customer expectations.
Finally, you will examine major outbreaks and food scandals in Europe and the ways they influenced industry behavior and regulation, along with what changes may be coming next.
By the end of this module, you will be able to:
You sell into Europe or work with European customers, suppliers, or standards. You manage food safety programs and need international context beyond U.S. regulations. You want to communicate requirements more confidently across regions.
This module is part of the larger Quality and Food Safety Training Continuing Education Series.
