Campden BRI appointed by Qatar Government to provide training for food inspectors

We have been chosen by the Qatar Supreme Council of Health to oversee an ambitious training programme which contributes to the country´s food safety.
Our technical experts are designing and managing a comprehensive programme to train more than 250 of Qatar´s food inspectors via a series of intensive workshops. The "Risk-Based Food Safety Inspections Skills" workshops, which include both theoretical and practical elements, are running over 18 weeks throughout this year and are being delivered in Arabic.

Dr Anton Alldrick, our Special Projects Manager, said: "The courses emphasise the need to take a risk-based approach to food safety, from farm to table. Through the courses, the inspectors will be reminded of the significant safety hazards that can be associated with food, how these are prevented and what evidence the inspector should look for to ensure that food businesses are correctly managed. This will include ensuring that the food businesses have an appropriate understanding of international standards of food hygiene practice and food safety management systems."

As a result of the courses we hope to help Qatar ensure high international standards in food safety, in line with the Qatar National Vision 2030.
