Staff at a new attraction in Renfrewshire have been ‘keeping-up’ with their training and development by completing an accredited Food Hygiene programme through Reid Kerr College.

The elementary food hygiene certificate comprises a number of detailed food hygiene subjects:

• preventing food poisoning
• personal hygiene
• food premises & equipment
• food hygiene law

All of the staff who took part in the training currently work throughout the attraction and have found the training beneficial to their role. A member of staff at Soccer Circus commented, “The course really brought home to us everything you need to think about when it comes to food preparation for the general public. There were lots of things we learned.”

Cameron Watt, General Manager with Soccer Circus added, “it was fantastic that we could access this course locally through Reid Kerr College. It’s really important to us to work in partnership with as many local businesses and organisations. Hopefully when it comes to re-training we can return to Reid Kerr College in the future.”

The brainchild of soccer legend Kevin Keegan, Soccer Circus opened its doors to the public in October this year, offering football skills games using real balls but in an interactive and fully automated setting.
