Training course: Quantitative Risk Assessment for Food Safety – Microbial Hazards

DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION

Trainer: Greg Paoli, CEO, Risk Sciences International, Dr. Ashwani Tiwari of the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.

Training Objective: To provide an introductory course in Quantitative Risk Assessment (QRAs), with the expectation that attendees will learn theory and then complete exercises related to hazard identification, exposure assessment, dose-response assessment and and risk characterization. This training session will focus on microbial hazards. The course includes a review of probabilistic concepts that are required for food safety risk assessment, including Monte Carlo simulation. The course will cover several ways of conducting QRAs, including the use of Microsoft Excel and the FDA-iRISK software platform (www.irisk.foodrisk.org).
