PROGRAM STEPS TO COMPLETION
All program study levels must be completed. There is no provision for partial work or previous experience.
1. Access the Safe Food Handler Certificate Program
2. Use the LEARN function to begin reading your way through the seven levels of course instruction.
3. Complete a ten-question QUIZ for each of the seven levels of instruction. Practice your recall by taking a quiz several times to increase your recall and skill. When you finish reading and quizzing at one level the next level automatically opens for you.
4. Once you have read and quizzed at all seven levels the EXAM is available for you to attempt. Pass the exam with at least a 70% score. If you do not pass an exam, the app will show where you need to study by marking that level in red. You must complete additional quizzes on that level before the exam will unlock for another attempt. We'll also send you an email detailing your exam performance.
5. When you PASS the exam, you will be emailed a program certificate that has a unique ID number and is valid for 3-years, along with an eBadge. The eBadge works as a handy and portable form of showing your accomplishment and program expertise. The eBadge unique number lets you or employers validate your certificate at cogneti.com/badge.

Ratings and reviews

This is a simple app that's really easy to use. It might cost a bit more than other available sites, but it's worth it because you get unlimited exam attempts. I was able to get my certification very quickly with no hassles. You can email if you need help or have any questions and will get a response in a timely manner. I would totally use Cogneti again and I'll also make sure to recommend it to anyone else I know who needs their food handler certificate.

Initially went on well. When taking quiz asked to pay 15USD. Upon paid, I've completed the series of quiz and completed. But now scores not showing, no certificate issued. Error message only received. How reliable this app?

it's great apps to get food handlers certificate...its founder is very humble and helpful person...🙂🙂
