Who we are

Food Safety & Hygiene Academy of the Philippines (FoodSHAP®) is the first educational institution at the forefront of Food Safety Qualification Program development for the food service and retail industry in the Philippines.

We develop internationally recognized certificate programs for food handlers channeled through authorized course providers such as universities, training centers, culinary schools, and corporate academia.

FoodSHAP® is the first food safety certificate program developer in Asia to be fully accredited by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI).

We were also awarded the CIEH Awards Recognising Excellence - Organization of the Year 2016 by the UK Chartered Institute of Environmental Health for its advocacy in the Philippines. We work with different government bodies and private sectors to promote food safety culture. We provide free trainings and qualification programs for food inspectors, sanitation and health personnel, public school/feeding program administrators, local communities and the public in general.

FoodSHAP® supports the Food Safety Act of 2013 or RA 10611 and its Implementing Rules and Regulations by developing training program and certification course for Food Safety Compliance Officer (FSCO) as mandated by the said law.

In the Philippines, FoodSHAP® is the partner of Department of Education (DepEd) and the Department of Health (DOH) for their food safety education programs and campaigns.

Our Mission is to help reduce the occurrence of foodborne illnesses in the country by supporting government capacity building needs, food industry training and program implementation, and public awareness on food safety. These are done through the support of industry partners and professional experts on Food Safety, Environmental Health, Food Microbiology, Education, and Management.
