SUMMARY:Food Defense Management Online | Nov 10-11, 2026
DESCRIPTION:COURSE DESCRIPTION\nFood Defense + Crisis Management\nDoes your company have a plan to prevent “intentional adulteration” of your products by an inside attacker?  FDA is requiring companies to assess this risk.  What about a crisis management plan that addresses a crisis situation like a intentional adulteration or a bomb threat?  These are some of the topics covered in this combination FSPCA food defense course (IAVA) and the Global Food Defense Institute’s (Rod Wheeler) “StreetSmart” approach to crisis management.\nDay 1\nOn Day 1, attendees will learn how to conduct  vulnerability assessments for acts of intentional adulteration using the newest FDA/FSPCA recommended approach by considering the risks in your facility from an “inside attacker”. Attendees will also learn the popular “hybrid method” that blends together the utilization of Key Activity Types (KAT’s) and the 3 key elements for conducting vulnerability assessments.\nDay 2\nDay 2 is filled with eye-popping, real-life crisis events that will keep attendees on the edge of their seats. Rod Wheeler will share his insights into recent crisis situations and challenge attendees to think about their own vulnerabilities and how to be ready when faced with emergency scenarios.\nNEW CONTENT!\nWe have added  a new topic to our course:  Using AI in Food Defense!  This will be a forward-looking component designed to help food industry professionals apply artificial intelligence to strengthen Food Defense programs and proactively protect against intentional adulteration and emerging threats\nWHAT SKILLS CAN STUDENTS EXPECT TO LEARN?\nAttendees will learn how to conduct vulnerability assessments for intentional adulteration risks at their individual facilities by using the three element and hybrid approaches recommended by FDA as well as how to manage real-life, crisis situations.
