Class Description:
The School Nutrition Frontline Specialist 2.0 course, developed in collaboration with the TDA Food & Nutrition’s Training Team and input from over 15 Child Nutrition Directors across Texas, addresses key topics for school nutrition frontline specialists.
USDA’s Professional Standards require that non-managerial staff working 20 hours or more per week complete at least 6 hours of relevant continuing education annually. This course offers the required hours in essential areas for frontline specialists, including kitchen math, records for food production, recognizing reimbursable meals, meal appeal, kitchen safety, sanitation, special diets, and effective communication.
Building on the foundational School Nutrition Frontline Specialist 1.0 course, this comprehensive program delves deeper into the roles and responsibilities of frontline staff. New front-line specialists are encouraged to complete the 1.0 introductory course before advancing to the 2.0 course.
