The new Hazard Analysis and Critical Control Point Training Curriculum 6th Edition (‘Blue Book’ - SGR 132) goes on sale June 1, 2017. This sixth edition includes some changes to improve the training program and the few additions regarding requirements introduced by the Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA).

In related news, a one-page supplement has been added to the existing Sanitation Control Procedures for Processing Fish and Fishery Products training manual (‘Green Book’ - SGR 119).

Both training manuals feature changes in compliance with the new Good Manufacturing Practices-Part 117. They will be required in accordance with the SHA/AFDO Protocol for approved HACCP and SCP courses accompanied with certificates of course completion issued and recorded by AFDO.

The ‘blue book,’ the ‘green book’ and the current 2011 edition of the FDA Hazard Guide (SGR 129) can be purchased and delivered at the existing rate ($25 US/manual) through the UF/IFAS Extension Bookstore, https://ifasbooks.ifas.ufl.edu/, 352-392-1764 or 800-225-1764. These are the required training manuals for the Seafood HACCP Alliance (SHA) courses recognized with the AFDO course completion certificate.
