Food Traceability Rule Training

Learn MoreStay Ahead of FDA Traceability Requirements

The Food Traceability Final Rule puts Section 204(d) of the FDA Food Safety Modernization Act (FSMA) into effect. It introduces enhanced recordkeeping requirements for traceability—going beyond standard regulations—for any company that manufactures, processes, packs, or holds foods listed on the FDA’s Food Traceability List (FTL).

To comply, businesses must have systems in place to effectively track the origin, condition, location, and handling controls of these foods throughout the supply chain. All affected parties should evaluate their current operations and readiness to meet these new standards.

Developed by experts from academia, industry, and government, this curriculum is the recognized standard for Food Traceability Rule training.
