SQFI requires three things before you take the Advanced SQF Practitioner course:
A passing result on SQFI's Implementing SQF Systems exam.
A completed HACCP training course that includes a final assessment.
At least one successful SQF certification or recertification (C – complies or higher) as the site's designated SQF Practitioner.
Meeting the prerequisites means you can get the full value of the course, which assumes working fluency with the SQF Code and hands-on practitioner experience. New to SQF? Start with Implementing SQF Systems.
Experienced SQF people who own, run or audit the SQF system at their site.
Practitioners preparing for their next recertification audit.
Backups stepping into the lead practitioner role.
Internal auditors who want a stronger view of the whole system.
Managers who own the SQF program at the site.
Two days built around SQFI's four course objectives: using internal audits to manage and improve the system, using corrective and preventive action to spot trends, communicating with senior management, and developing key performance indicators.
Day one focuses on the engine of a mature SQF system: clear objectives, a CAPA process that actually surfaces root causes, and an internal audit program that does more than meet the clause.
Day two zooms out from individual processes to the system as a whole — culture, leadership engagement, KPIs, and a runway to recertification.
Everything you need to know before you enroll.
