The Standards Self-Assessment and Verification Audit Workshop is designed to provide participants with an overview of the Retail Program Standards criteria and an in-depth understanding of the self-assessment and verification audit processes, worksheets, and forms. The two-and-a-half-day workshop will enable participants to:

• Identify the requirements for each of the nine Retail Food Program Standards;
• Explore various approaches to meeting the criteria within the Retail Food Program Standards;
• Use the Retail Food Program Standards worksheets and forms to complete a verification audit of a jurisdiction’s self-assessment against the criteria contained in the standards; and
• Use the worksheets and forms to electronically compile and maintain results.
