Application Procedure


Jointly developed by the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) and SkillsFuture Singapore (SSG), this refresher course is designed to ensure sustained awareness on good hygiene practices by food handlers. Are you a food handler looking for a refresher course? This course aims to refresh participants with knowledge and skills to observe food hygiene and safety while preparing or handling food. This is a mandatory course for food handlers. Candidates certified competent are recognized by SFA as meeting the licensing requirement to work as food handlers.

With effect from 01 Oct 2014, the refresher training requirement is as shown below:

Refresher Training Requirement
1st refresher training By 5th year from an SFA approved Basic Food Hygiene Course (BFHC) passed date
2nd refresher training Every 10th year from last refresher course passed date

SFA continues to recognize the Refresher Food Hygiene certificates awarded by ITE from Oct 2010 to Jun 2014. A food handler who is a holder of an ITE Refresher Food Hygiene certificate would only be required to attend subsequent refresher training 10 years from the date that the Refresher Food Hygiene certificate was awarded.
