Each licensed regular restaurant and retail food processing facility conducting meal service activities in the state of Wisconsin must have at
least one manager or operator who is certified in food protection practices. (1) A new food establishment (regular restaurant or a retail food
processor) or a food establishment under going a change of operator after February 1, 2001 shall have a certified food manager within 90 days of
the initial day of operation or provide documentation that they are scheduled within three (3) months to take and pass an approved examination
as specified. (WI State Statutes Chapter 254.71, and section 12-201.11, HFS 196, Restaurants, Wisconsin Administrative Code). Certification
requires that the restaurant permit holder or manager pass one of four state approved exams which tests basic knowledge of food protection
practices. The certified person may not satisfy the requirement for more than one facility. Prepackaged-off premise, temporary and "special
organizations serving meals" restaurant operations and food establishments only processing non-potentially hazardous food or not processing are
exempt from this requirement. Certification involves a) taking and passing an approved exam and b) applying for state certification. After the
exam is taken and passed, the individual must apply for state certification by submitting all of the following: Proof of passing one of the
exams with an official written statement/document from the testing organization; a check or money order for $10.00 made out to the Department of
Health and Family Services; and a completed application. The "Food Manager's Certificate" expires five years after the date of issue, and may
be renewed if the certified manager successfully completes a recertification training course. You may obtain information about courses and
exams from the following organizations: Wisconsin Restaurant Association, 608-270-9950; Tavern League of Wisconsin, 608-270-8591; Waukesha
County Technical College (WCTC), 262-691-5254; Milwaukee Area Technical College, 414-297-7462; Gasser and Associates, 608-267-7189; Food
