Workshop Overview
Food safety doesn’t start in the factory—it starts on the farm. Every step of the food chain matters, and when primary producers and processors understand each other’s role, safer food (and happier consumers) follow.
That’s where GLOBALG.A.P. comes in: an internationally recognised standard that sets the bar for Good Agricultural Practices (GAP). From soil and water management to biodiversity, pest control, fertilisers, pre- and post-harvest handling, and even HACCP—it’s all about keeping food safe while protecting the environment.
This workshop breaks the standard down into clear, practical steps so producers and processors can understand, apply, and benefit from GLOBALG.A.P. certification.
Learning is made fun & practical
At Progress Excellence, we do training a little differently. Whether it’s food safety, quality, health and safety, environmental, or laboratory systems – we make sure it’s practical, relevant, and easy to put into action.
We use real, sector-specific examples so the content actually makes sense in your world. Our sessions are interactive and hands-on, with activities that help turn theory into something you can apply straight away.
Plus, we share ready-to-use templates and implementation plans to make your job easier. Our goal? To give you the skills and confidence to not just understand the requirements, but to actually apply them and improve your systems in a meaningful way.
