To uphold the highest standards in school nutrition, the Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act (HHFKA) requires all school nutrition professionals to complete annual training to meet USDA Professional Standards. These standards ensure school nutrition staff have the knowledge, training, and tools to plan, prepare, and procure nutritious, safe, and enjoyable school meals.
University of Illinois Extension has partnered with the Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) to offer professional development training for school nutrition professionals.
Check-in is from 7:30 to 8:00 a.m. The training will start promptly at 8:00 a.m. and last until 3:30 p.m. We look forward to seeing you there!
