Make ServSafe Manager Curriculum More Engaging

Thursday June 12, 2025 9:05am - 10:00am MDT

Overwhelmed by the ServSafe Manager Curriculum? Do your students complain every time you pull out the textbook? The majority of this session will focus on how I engage students in the curriculum using a variety of resources and projects. Please come prepared to participate in a discussion about what works in your classroom as well.

Time permitting, I would love to share tips and tricks I have implemented over the past 15 years of teaching that have made my life a little easier.
