SUMMARY:Food Safety Webinar Series: Food Safety Without Fear: Building Safe Products from Day One
DESCRIPTION:The UMaine Extension Food Safety Webinar Series is a monthly\, expert-led educational series focused on practical food safety\, regulatory compliance\, and product innovation across the food system. Sessions cover topics such as electronic record-keeping\, workforce training\, chemical safety\, food adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, audit readiness\, product development\, environmental air quality\, and alternative protein innovations. The series is designed for food producers\, processors\, seafood businesses\, entrepreneurs\, quality assurance staff\, extension educators\, students\, faculty\, regulatory professionals\, and technical specialists\, with particular relevance for those working with food safety training\, compliance systems\, seafood hazards\, product development\, and emerging technologies in food processing. \nFood businesses and professionals face increasing regulatory expectations\, evolving hazards\, and rapid technological change. By addressing real-world topics such as digital compliance systems\, chemical handling\, adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, and audit preparation\, the series helps participants stay current and make informed\, practical decisions. Participants will gain practical tools\, real-world case studies\, and actionable strategies related to training programs\, compliance documentation\, safe chemical use\, adulteration prevention\, seafood safety\, product innovation\, and environmental controls—knowledge they can immediately apply in their operations\, classrooms\, or regulatory work. \nFood Safety Without Fear: Building Safe Products from Day One\nFood safety doesn’t have to be intimidating\, expensive\, or a barrier to innovation. Drawing on real-world experience launching Maine Garum Company\, Liam Fisher discusses how to integrate food safety directly into seafood product development early\, simply\, and effectively. We’ll break down how to think about risk analysis\, navigate regulation\, design safe processes\, and build confidence so you can create without fear. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by regulations or unsure where to start\, this talk is for you. \nTo Register and Receive Webinar Zoom Link
