Food Allergy Awareness Course

3.5(2)

By Elearncollege

Description Food Allergy Awareness Diploma  For those handling foods, it is essential to be aware of various food allergies. This is where the Food Allergy Awareness Diploma course comes in handy. It provides participants with the required knowledge about food-related reactions, thus helping them keep allergic people safe. It is imperative to manage allergies. The only possible method to achieve this is to avoid contact with the food that affects them adversely. Thus, people handling food must know how to read labels and be adept at preventing adulteration. This Food Allergy Awareness Diploma course aims to create more awareness about the impact of allergies associated with a particular ingredient or food item. One can learn how to ensure that consumers are well-versed with various food options. To date, there is no definite cure for food allergies other than simply avoiding consumption to escape a reaction. Even with just a dash of an allergic component, indications vary from trivial to significant. In some cases, they may be fatal. Through this Food Allergy Awareness Diploma course, you can explore in-depth all aspects that should be considered for consumer safety. As per the Food Information Regulations guidelines, it is legally required to furnish precise information about the ingredients, whether it is shared verbally to the customers for loosely stored food or via detailed labelling for packaged food items. Eating out at hawkers, cafes and restaurants are pretty standard for us, and people are more aware of their allergies now than ever before. But there was a time when a bought meal or a packed food item carried the risk of a severe life-threatening reaction. Therefore, people working in food production factories or preparing or selling food items should be abreast with food allergies, risks, and preventive measures. There are 14 main allergens as listed by the EU Food Information for Consumers Regulation that became legal in the U.K. in 2014. Individuals may be allergic to other foods such as celery, gluten-containing cereals, eggs, crustaceans, molluscs, mustard, fish, lupin, milk, almonds, peanuts, sesame seeds, soya, and sulphur dioxide (sometimes known as sulphites). This course teaches you in detail about each of these, their implications and more. Any person handling food should be thorough with this concept as negligence in storing and managing etc., can have massive repercussions. The Food Allergy Awareness diploma can be signed up for online and attended through your laptops, smartphones or tablets. What you will learn   1: Get to Know About Food Allergies  2: What Causes Food Allergy  3: Food Allergy Common Signs and Symptoms in Skin 4: Food Allergy Common Signs and Symptoms in Respiratory Tract, GI and Heart  5: Identifying the Common Allergenic Foods 6: Your Allergic Food Substitutes 7: Preparing Allergen-Free Diet 8: Managing with Allergens at Home  9: Dealing with Food Allergies While Travelling and Eating Out  10: Food Allergy Awareness Among Allergic Children  Course Outcomes After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college. Assessment Each unit concludes with a multiple-choice examination. This exercise will help you recall the major aspects covered in the unit and help you ensure that you have not missed anything important in the unit. The results are readily available, which will help you see your mistakes and look at the topic once again. If the result is satisfactory, it is a green light for you to proceed to the next chapter.

20th February Maddy Belton #Agent121. Looking for: MG, YA, CHILDREN'S NON-FICTION, ADULT FICTION

5.0(1)

By I Am In Print

LOOKING FOR: MG, YA AND ADULT SCI-FI / FANTASY, CHILDREN'S NON-FICTION After graduating from St Andrews University with a degree in English Literature and Art History, Maddy followed her love of literature to an internship at non-fiction literary agency Graham Maw Christie. At GMC, Maddy worked her way up to Agent and built a list of authors who wrote for both for adults and children, spanning history, tarot, and nature writing. An avid reader of anything magical, Maddy joined Madeleine Milburn in 2022 to build a list specialising in SFF. Maddy would like to see SFF across all genres for all ages, including: grim dark, thriller, historical, romance, cosy fantasy, sci-fi, epic, YA fantasy, dark academia, contemporary fantasy, fantasy middle-grade, mythology, fairy tale and queer fantasy. Inspiring children’s non-fiction. She loves worlds to get lost in, adventures that transform what it means to be a hero, and unique magic that offers as many problems as solutions. She likes books that make her cry and books that change her mind. Above all, when she finishes a story about another world, she wants it to have taught her a lesson which helps her live in this one. She loves all fantasy, but favours richly imagined, complex worlds with a history to discover and a future to protect. Worldbuilding is one of her favourite aspects of this genre and she is always looking for a new, dense world with series potential. Think Brandon Sanderson’s Cosmere or the Marvel Cinematic Universe – the bigger the better! She also likes character-driven fantasy with a diverse cast to root for (or root against) and she wants to see a range of different relationships depicted authentically. She particularly like epics that dip into big, universal themes such as grief, climate change, or war and which ask impossible questions in the vein of R.F. Kuang or N.K. Jemisin. She is also excited by authors that play with form and language in a fantasy setting. In YA, she is looking for much the same as in an adult fantasy, but with younger protagonists and a closer focus on relationships. She wants to see the tropes she knows and loves in new and exciting forms and her favourite YA books often centre around belonging and becoming. She likes a dash of romance in everything, because she is sentimental that way, but it’s particularly important in the YA space. Sci-fi is a big passion of hers, especially when it comes with a strong hook. She is a huge fan of Becky Chamber’s The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet and Michaiah Johnson’s The Space Between Worlds. She likes space as a metaphor, and would love something that explores different alien species. Please send her your space operas and sci-fi romances which combine space, magic and mayhem! In fantasy middle grade, she favours whimsy and animal companions; she would love to follow a group of kids through magic school. She tends to look for plenty of humour with a strong friendship at the centre, and she wants middle grade stories which engage with the concerns of children growing up as well as offering an all-important escape (preferably on a dragon/unicorn’s back). She is also looking for children’s non-fiction for all ages. In this space, she wants something as creative as it is informative, and thinks diverse voices are increasingly important. Maddy would like you to submit a covering letter, one page synopsis and the first three chapters (Max 5000 words) of your completed manuscript in a single word document. (In addition to the paid sessions, Maddy is kindly offering one free session for low income/under-represented writers. Please email agent121@iaminprint.co.uk to apply, outlining your case for this option which is offered at the discretion of I Am In Print).  By booking you understand you need to conduct an internet connection test with I Am In Print prior to the event. You also agree to email your material in one document to reach I Am In Print by the stated submission deadline and note that I Am In Print take no responsibility for the advice received during your agent meeting. The submission deadline is: Monday 10th February 2025
