Training that makes a difference on the floor
Food safety training in food service has a compliance problem and a practical problem. The compliance problem: Standard 3.2.2A requires all food handlers to have skills and knowledge appropriate to their work, and food businesses to have a Food Safety Supervisor with a current certificate. The practical problem: most food safety training is generic, forgettable, and not connected to what staff actually do in the kitchen.
AMES Food Advisory training is different. As a TAE-qualified trainer and assessor and current TAFE NSW food technology lecturer, our training is grounded in how adults actually learn — through real examples, practical demonstration, and direct connection to the tasks your team performs every day.

Training programs for food service businesses
Food Safety Supervisor certification pathway
Standard 3.2.2A requires every food service business handling unpackaged potentially hazardous food to have a certified Food Safety Supervisor (FSS). The FSS must hold a current certificate from an approved RTO covering food handling and food safety practices relevant to the business type.
AMES Food Advisory can guide your nominated FSS through the certification pathway — identifying the right RTO, understanding the assessment requirements, and bridging any knowledge gaps through preparatory training. We also help businesses establish their FSS records and ensure the certificate is incorporated into the Food Safety Program documentation.
Training records and compliance documentation
All training delivered by AMES Food Advisory is accompanied by training records suitable for inclusion in your Food Safety Program documentation. When an NSW Food Authority inspector asks to see evidence that your food handlers have appropriate skills and knowledge, your training records provide that evidence.
