Note - In Customer Shipping Information please put the name of the Test Taker so we can track payment when they test. Thanks.
IFSEA has tested over 2200 nursing home managers - we are offering the Manley Method training for FREE to raise the knowledge level of the managers and staff. They will do a better job, feel more secure in their knowledge, be ready to get promoted, and take better care of the residents. Some will later want to get certified, but we honestly don't care, we want to raise the industry standards. Note 2 - The only other CMS approved option takes over a year, no free retest, $1000 and more, and has annual fees, so CFM is your best, reasonable and passable option. 40% fail the first time, so not easy, but almost all pass after we provide advice on their answers that made no sense, don't tell the right answer, just like how is it possible you don't know the temperature to cook chicken, or how many ounces are in a quart - smile. As we tell them, our FIRST priority is the resident, 2nd is the company and 3rd is the test taker. They can kill people, get their company sued, waste money!! And they'll do a better job with our training - the certification is just a plus.
"The future belongs to those who prepare for it!"
Denzel Washington during a commencement address.
That's what the Manley Method was created to do.

Certified Food Manager is one of only two certifications that are accepted by CMS (Centers for Medicare & Medicaid) for the food service manager of a nursing home or long-term-care facility. Major demerits and fines can result in the manager losing their job. Companies are desperate to find people who are already certified. CFM is faster (3-4 days of study vs 18 months for CDM, less expensive ($399 vs $3,000 to $4,000 for CDM) and less difficult than the other alternative because we only teach what you will ACTUALLY USE. We suggest getting CFM so you can get and keep the job, and work on CDM as a long-term goal, when you have 18 months and $3,000 - it may pay more and absolutely is better if and when you can. But only 2 of 10 people who apply actually earn CDM. We suggest getting an AA on your way to a BA on your way to a Master's, same idea.
If you have a foodborne illness outbreak and get sued and your manager is not certified to CMS standards, your loss will likely be greater.
The Certified Food Manager Course and Certification Exam provides a foundation for food service operations needed in restaurant, deli, café, healthcare, secondary and post-secondary schools and military food service settings.
