The FDA issued the final rule in May 2016 on mitigation strategies to protect food against “Intentional Adulteration”\, which requires applicable facilities to formulate and implement food defense plans. The purpose of the food defense plan is to prevent food products being adulterated from any source inside or outside the company. Such acts intended to cause wide-spread harm to public health\, including but not limited to acts of terrorism intending to target food supply\, could cause illness\, death and economic turmoil to the food supply. Implementing an effective food defense plan will allow for the prevention\, protection against\, mitigation\, response time and recovery from any intentional adulteration of our food supply. Furthermore\, food defense is already a requirement for all GFSI accredited Food Safety Management Systems (SQF\, BRC etc.).

Team Building & Effectiveness is most often a precursor to a focused team based effort to address specific business areas\, or an integral part of a more comprehensive business improvement strategy. During the class\, basic team concepts are covered including\, but not limited to stages of team development\, roles and responsibilities\, ground rules for acceptable team behavior and team decision making processes.\nTeams have become a principal building block of the strategy of successful organizations. Whether the focus is on service\, quality\, cost\, value\, speed\, efficiency\, performance\, or other similar goals\, teams are the central methodology of most organizations in the private\, non-profit\, and government sectors.\nIn most teams\, the energies of individual members work at cross purposes. Individuals may work extraordinarily hard\, but their efforts do not translate into team effort\, and this results in wasted energy. By contrast\, when a team becomes more aligned\, a commonality of direction emerges\, and individual energies harmonize. You have a shared vision and an understanding of how to complement each others’ efforts.

Participants will learn how to handle FDA and third party Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) inspections. The training will also outline how to interact effectively with investigators so that organizations can not only react to inspections\, but anticipate them as well. \nThe participants will learn and understand the revised (cGMP’s) – according to the final rule for “Preventive Controls for Human Food”\, released on September 17th\, 2015. \nBy the end of the training course\, participants will be able to:\nUnderstand the components and requirements of cGMP within the food and beverage industry.\nImplement cGMP through the organization to ensure sanitary and processing requirements are being met.” URL:https://www.njmep.org/calendar-event/cgmp-current-good-manufacturing-practices-requirements-and-readiness/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211102T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211102T000000 DTSTAMP:20260403T172119 CREATED:20220315T133755Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220315T133755Z UID:52943-1635811200-1635811200@www.njmep.org SUMMARY:Principles of Lean Manufacturing for Food Processing with Live Simulation DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.njmep.org/calendar-event/principles-of-lean-manufacturing-for-food-processing-with-live-simulation/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211102T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211110T000000 DTSTAMP:20260403T172119 CREATED:20220315T133756Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220315T133756Z UID:52946-1635811200-1636502400@www.njmep.org SUMMARY:You Had Me At Hello: Call Center Training for Excellence in Customer Service DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.njmep.org/calendar-event/you-had-me-at-hello-call-center-training-for-excellence-in-customer-service/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=UTC:20211103T000000 DTEND;TZID=UTC:20211103T000000 DTSTAMP:20260403T172119 CREATED:20230120T211841Z LAST-MODIFIED:20230120T211841Z UID:60207-1635897600-1635897600@www.njmep.org SUMMARY:Principles of Lean Manufacturing for Food Processing with Live Simulation DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.njmep.org/calendar-event/principles-of-lean-manufacturing-for-food-processing-with-live-simulation-6/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20211103T000000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20211104T000000 DTSTAMP:20260403T172119 CREATED:20220315T133754Z LAST-MODIFIED:20220315T133754Z UID:52940-1635897600-1635984000@www.njmep.org SUMMARY:Supervisory Skills Training DESCRIPTION: URL:https://www.njmep.org/calendar-event/supervisory-skills-training/ END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
