Welcome to the FAPTC site.
With the recent signing of the Food Safety Modernization Act into law, the time is now to reform the food and agriculture safety system and how the nation prepares and responds to major food safety incidents.
As a consortium of eight university centers and IFPTI, FAPTC is able to provide comprehensive food safety training and technical expertise. We have the capability and capacity to create and deliver training for the food and agriculture sector both domestically and internationally.
Our consortium members work with various government agencies to create and provide training for professionals dedicated to protecting our nation’s food and citizens.
If you would like more information on our work and how you can partner with us to make the nation’s food supply safer, please contact us at info@faptc.org.
