Blaine County MSU Extension agent Trent Noel conducted a ServSafe program in Blaine County. ServSafe is a state-required program for restaurants and food-serving establishments. One person from every food establishment needs to be ServSafe certified. The ServSafe program is an 8-hour class with a comprehensive exam at the end. Participants must get a 70% on the exam to pass and gain certification. The certification is good for five years after passing the test. Noel had three Blaine County participants in the class and has 14 signed up for December. There is a continuing need for ServSafe in Blaine County, so this program will continue to deliver effective training in the future.
