Course Overview

A core element to the defence of food is a systematic evaluation of vulnerable elements of the supply chain carried out by an experienced and trusted team. Two of the tools for performing evaluation has been called Threat Assessment and Critical Control Point (TACCP) and Vulnerability Assessment and Critical Control Points (VACCP). This reflects established procedures for risk management and it is likely that organisations will increasingly incorporate it into crisis and/or business continuity management frameworks. This short course provides an overview of these established procedures.
