Under Public Act 100-0367, all employees who have a CFPM license must have an ANSI approved Allergen awareness training. This excludes employees with Food Handler Training, grocery stores, convenience stores, daycares, schools, assisted living/long term care facilities and CFPM employees who work in a Category 2 Facility. This training is transferable between employers.
