The Registration Process
Our process is simple and easy. Visitors can register and pay for our ServSafe classes in TN online via credit or debit card. We also accept offline registrations by phone at 855-857-7233 or by emailing us at info@tscassociates.com.
Once your registration is complete, we’ll send you the necessary materials and further instructions for your course. Our team is always available to answer any questions you have regarding our courses.
Do I Need a Book?
Books are not required, but we highly recommend them. While our ServSafe Food Manager classes are comprehensive, we do cover a lot of material in a short amount of time. We suggest ordering the 7th edition ServSafe Manager’s book and studying it in advance of the class.
How Do I Get a Book? How Quickly Will It Be Delivered?
Books can be purchased through TSC Associates and usually arrive within two business days as they are shipped via FedEx or UPS. We offer a purchase option that includes the book with the class and exam.
Demonstration of knowledge – The manager/owner can demonstrate their knowledge to the health inspector by answering questions regarding food safety OR have a manager that is a Certified Food Protection Manager.
ServSafe Food Handlers books used for this training.
Tennessee does not require staff in a food service establishment to have food safety training at this time. It is a good practice to teach food safety to all food handlers. The ServSafe Food Handler program is a great foundation for food safety and it is easy to teach and learn.
(This training is primarily for wait staff, bartenders, cooks, dishwashers, etc. Managers would take the ServSafe Managers Course.)
