What is the validity period for the WSQ Food Safety Course (FSC) Level 3 for Food Hygiene Officers (FHOs)?

Updated by SFA
The WSQ FSC Level 3 Statement of Attainment (SOA) issued by Skills and Workforce Development Agency (SWDA) is a one-time certification and does not have a validity period. There is currently no retraining requirement for FHOs. However, FHOs who handle food in the course of their work are subject to similar retraining requirements as food handlers. These FHOs are required to undergo retraining in WSQ Food Safety Course Level 1 or 2, within 5 years from the date of passing WSQ FSC Level 3, and subsequently every 10 years if they continue to handle food.
