Southeast Community College’s Continuing Education Division offers an online course that leads to a Food Protection Manager Permit.

The class is accepted by the Lincoln-Lancaster County Health Department for the sanitation training needed to obtain a Food Protection Manager permit.

Students receive their assignments online through SCC’s online learning platform called Moodle Upon completion of each reading assignment, students will complete an online quiz. A minimum of 75 percent is required on each quiz to qualify the student to take the final ServSafe® exam. The ServSafe® exam is taken online in the SCC Testing Center.

The course is delivered entirely online and facilitated by SCC faculty. Students will need:

• Computer with high-speed Internet connection.

• Working knowledge of computer and Internet experience.

• The course textbook, ServSafe® Manager, is available to order online at www.sccbookstore.com or in person at the SCC Bookstore, 8800 O St., Lincoln.

Students are reminded that they cannot access the course using an iPad or droid tablet, and there is a six-hour waiting period between online registration for the class and class access. Cost is $60 per person.
