TransCert Module 2:

Module 2 describes the basic system guidelines employed by
TransCert to provide guidance when choosing which standards and practices apply
to your specific company. For instance, a retail or restaurant chain may
require full compliance to food transportation management, HACCP, traceability,
training and sanitation requirements while a maintenance station may only wish
to meet sanitation process control standards.

External Auditor Certification:
Prevention and Cause and Effect

analysis techniques. The module is designed for internal and external auditors
