Lectures and breakout sessions will be led by industry and academic experts.Note: Although examples used will be meat-related, concepts related to formulation safety, thermal processing, predictive modeling, and environmental controls can be applied to any refrigerated food. This course will include numerous hands-on and interactive exercises to build upon classroom discussion. Attendees will have the opportunity to acquire proficiency with predictive models and other resources to manage process variations, establish thermal process, formulating foods for safety, and handling cooling deviations, focusing on real-world, in-plant scenarios. Panel discussions and opportunities to interact with instructors are built into the schedule and will provide substantial one-on-one education.
