For decades, getting your Certified Food Protection Manager (CFPM) designation meant one thing: The “8-Hour Classroom Slog.”

You know the routine. You wake up early, drive an hour to a hotel conference room or a distributor’s basement, sit on uncomfortable chairs, and listen to a lecture that feels like it lasts a lifetime. You lose a day of production, you spend money on gas, and by the time the exam starts, you are exhausted.

The industry has evolved. The technology has evolved. Finally, the training has evolved.

At ACE Restaurant Manager Training, we are leading the shift away from outdated classrooms toward the future of certification: Live, Interactive Food Safety Webinars.

Future of Food Manager Certification

Why “Live Online” is Better Than “In-Person”

There is a misconception that “online training” means watching boring, pre-recorded videos from 10 years ago. That is not what we do.

We have combined the best parts of the classroom (a real, expert instructor) with the best parts of digital learning (comfort and convenience).

1. Real Human Interaction, Zero Travel

Our webinars are hosted weekly by live instructors. This means you can ask questions in real-time, get clarification on tricky topics like HACCP plans or cooking temperatures, and engage with the material—all without leaving your house. We support students in all 50 states, bringing the classroom to your kitchen table.

2. Higher Retention Rates

The data is clear: Comfort improves learning. When you are relaxed in your own environment, rather than stressed from a commute or distracted by a cold classroom, you retain information better. Our students consistently report higher pass rates on ANAB-accredited exams because the training environment respects their needs.

3. English and Spanish Options

The hospitality industry is diverse, and safety knows no language barrier. We are one of the few providers offering live, weekly webinars in both English and Spanish. This ensures your Spanish-speaking kitchen managers get the same high-quality preparation as your English-speaking staff, taught by fluent experts.

Preparing for the Exam: FMC, ServSafe, and NRFSP

Our webinars are designed to prepare you for any ANAB-approved Certified Food Protection Manager exam. While we prepare you for ServSafe and NRFSP, our Preferred Provider is FMC (Food Managers Certification).

Why do we prefer FMC? Like ServSafe, it is fully ANAB-accredited and accepted nationwide. However, FMC offers superior technology, allowing for remote proctoring. This means you can finish our webinar and take the official exam immediately from your computer—no need to drive to a testing center.

The Verdict: The Future is Hybrid

The days of losing staff for a full day to “go to class” are over.

  • No Commute.

  • No Travel Costs.

  • Weekly Availability.

  • Nationwide Access.

Join the wave of the future. Get the training that respects your time, your budget, and your intelligence.
