Food Safety Supervisors Course Online

Mode of Delivery

This course is delivered online with a required workplace assessment.

• Online learning and assessments - Complete the theory at your own pace in our student portal. Save your progress and return anytime.
• Workplace assessment - Students must organise access to an approved operational commercial kitchen. A supervisor or industry expert observes you across a minimum of 3 separate occasions totalling at least 6 hours, using a checklist we provide.
• Host Site Pre-Approval and Declaration - Choose a commercial kitchen and ask a supervisor or food handler to complete a short online form confirming the site is suitable and safe. The form is sent directly to Eclipse Education for review and approval, and must be approved before any shifts begin. We provide this form when you start your online theory.
• Eclipse placement forms - During your workplace shifts you will complete three Eclipse-controlled digital forms in the kitchen: a Temperature Monitoring Log, a Food Disposal Record, and a Food Safety Incident Report. These are submitted directly and securely to Eclipse Education and form part of your assessment evidence.

We provide all forms and guidance once you enrol. The responsibility for finding a suitable commercial kitchen lies with the student, and we make the process as simple and supported as possible.

How It Works — Step by Step

1. Complete the online theory — Work through all theory modules and knowledge assessments at your own pace in the Eclipse student portal.
2. Get your placement approved — Submit the Host Site Pre-Approval and Declaration form for your chosen commercial kitchen. Eclipse reviews and approves the site before any shifts begin.
3. Complete your workplace practical — A supervisor or industry expert at your approved site observes you performing real food safety tasks across a minimum of 3 occasions totalling at least 6 hours and completes our checklist.
4. Submit your Eclipse forms — During your shifts, complete and submit three digital forms (Temperature Monitoring Log, Food Disposal Record, and Food Safety Incident Report) directly to Eclipse from the kitchen.
5. Receive your Statement of Attainment — Eclipse reviews all evidence and, once competency is confirmed, issues your nationally accredited Statement of Attainment for SITXFSA006.
