State Regulations

It is highly recommended to have at least one manager with a food protection manager certification in North Dakota. However, certain local health authorities go a step further and mandate Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM) training.

For instance, starting in 2020, the First District Health Unit (FDHU) requires establishments classified as risk level 2 or those with ten or more food employees to have a CFPM in charge at all times. It's worth noting that different health districts may have their specific requirements.

To become eligible as a CFPM within the FDHU or establishments governed by the North Dakota Food Code, you must complete an approved CFPM course and examination. One option is to enroll in the CFPM course and exam provided by Always Food Safe.
