Food hygiene course in Singapore: which course do you need?
“Basic food hygiene course” is a familiar search term for training now known as WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1. If you are starting food-handling work, use our Level 1 course page for registration details. If you trained before, check your records before choosing a refresher route.
Starting food-handling work
Check the current Singapore Food Agency requirements for your role and establishment. The initial Level 1 route includes training and assessment. Ask about the class language, course fee and next available date before you register.
Already trained?
Find your previous course completion record and review the retraining requirements with SFA. Do not choose a course solely because its name includes “renewal”. The appropriate route depends on your training history. Contact Jacin if you need help identifying which course to enquire about.
Choose one course, then confirm the details
Food hygiene and food safety searches can lead to pages describing the same Level 1 course. Compare the course reference, provider, assessment arrangements and full payable fee. Our main Level 1 page brings together course details and registration, with separate guides for language and funding questions.
