Free Online Technology Training – Principles of Food Processing

admin — Sat, 28 Jan 2012 16:00:29 +0000

The International Union of Food Science and Technology (IUFoST) is developing a distance learning programme that is aimed at supporting entrepreneurs and workers operating in the Food Manufacturing Industry. To date six modules have been developed.

Dehydration and Drying
Food Packaging
Freezing
Practical Human Nutrition
Shelf life and Food Losses
Quality Assurance

Each module consists of well defined sections which are learnt through a manual, assignments and exams all supported by a mentor.

I would like to take on the mentoring of readers of this blog who might be interested to follow modules. There is no cost so you just need to contact me to get signed up and follow the process that will be described on the website. The material starts out very simply and clearly so anyone involved in food processing would be able to easily master it and benefit from increasing their knowledge.

So why not contact me by using this link either to register and receive details of how to proceed or to request further information.

admin — Sat, 27 Aug 2011 19:38:28 +0000

Google is making the latest attempt to introduce a social media tool to operate alongside Facebook, Twitter and the like.

This seems to be working really well for technical groups such as photographers and programmers, so I would like to try it with Food Processors! Basically it allows you to focus on sharing and receiving information in a contra;;ed subject area – Food Processing in this case.

The first thing you need to do is to have a Google Account with a public profile. Then at this stage you need and invitation to join Google +

Create an appropriate account here

Create Your Public Profile Here

Use This Invitation to Join Google+

What you can then do is follow my Food Processing Stream and link me and others sharing information on Food Processing in a Google+ Circle. You will then be able to see just the Food Processing Related Posts of the members of the circle and address you specific Food Processing Posts to them alone!
