One of the major changes coming with Colorado’s adoption of the 2013 FDA Food Code is the requirement that retail food establishments employ at least one Certified Food Protection Manager. This change is scheduled to take effect January 1, 2019. This certification can only be obtained by taking an ANSI-CFP accredited exam administered by a Certified Proctor or Testing Center. A Certified Proctor is a person that has been certified by the testing center to administer the exam. Listed below are exam options for satisfying the requirement. There is associated training available for each exam. It is not mandatory to purchase training materials if you are confident in your food safety knowledge and want to proceed directly to taking a Certified Food Protection Manager exam.
