Answers
How long is my certification good for?
The food manager certification is good for up to five years. Check with your local health department or regulatory agency to see how often recertification is needed in your area.
Does the certificate have a state seal?
In some areas you may have to take the National Registry exam to your local health department or regulatory agency to obtain a local license, stamp or card.
How do I get a reprint of my certificate?
Fill out a Reprint Request/Information update form and fax in or mail with payment. The cost is $10 to reprint a certificate.
If I pass the exam, does this entitle me to use the letters FSP after our name in a professional context?
Yes, as long as your certificate is valid. If you do not retest after the five-year period, then you can no longer use the initials.
