What our past students have to say…

Sue Farace,the instructor, is extremely knowledgeable and competent in teaching the class and covers a lot more information than what is actually in the study guide booklet. - Rebecca, Pcf

Sue took the class with just one person. I couldn't be more greatfull. Sue made the class so easy to learn and made sure I knew what I needed to to pass the class - Ryan Zyla , southern eats

The class was very thorough. - Kirk Priddy, Tutti Frutti of Towson LL

Sue is very nice and will take the time to go in depth with explaining topics if students to not fully understand. Likewise, taking Serv Safe from SMF was a lot less stressful than taking it through RAM. This was the fourth time I have taken Serv S - Arlene, S. DiPaula & Sons Seafood, Inc.

CLASS SIZE IS VERY GOOD. TIME IS CONVINIENT AND METHODS OF LEARNING WERE VERY INFORMATIVE & UPDATED. - PING, PHILIPPINE ORIENTAL

Class was great. Susan did an excellent job at explaining the information. She spent the perfect amount of time on each topic without being overwhelming. Any questions were answered promptly and if she didn’t have the answer to it she wouldn’t give you false information. - Katelyn , Tim Hortons
