Food Fraud & Food Defence: VACCP and TACCP in Practice

Food fraud and deliberate contamination are not hazards a standard HACCP plan is designed to catch. Fraud is driven by economic gain; tampering is driven by intent to harm. Both demand their own assessment, controls and evidence. This SkillCert Specialist course takes you step by step through a real supply chain: you will score raw materials and suppliers for fraud vulnerability, assess a site for deliberate-attack threats, choose proportionate controls, plan authenticity testing and respond to a suspected incident. Every module uses workplace scenarios from food businesses in the UAE, India and international supply chains. You finish with a ready-to-use toolkit and the confidence to present your plans to a certification auditor.

Food fraud vulnerability and food defence threat assessments are required by every GFSI-recognised scheme, and auditors now expect the people who carry them out to show genuine competence. This course prepares you to lead or contribute to these assessments in food manufacturing, supply-chain and quality roles.
