Course summary
An increasingly complex regulatory environment, along with Brexit and potential regulatory divergence between EU and UK led Food Drink Ireland Skillnet to partner with the Regulatory Affairs in Food Drink Ireland/IBEC and ATU Sligo to develop this programme. The programme is part of a suite of programmes developed to respond to the Food and Drink industries’ needs while also being compliant with new policy and regulations in the area of Food and Drink Regulatory Affairs. At the end of the programme, graduates will have a thorough understanding of the theory and best practice relating to Food and Drink sector regulatory structures and procedures and will be able to apply independent thinking and research skills in workplace decisions regarding relevant food and drink regulatory frameworks.
