Those with Northern Virginia Food Manager ID Cards issued by ORS need only present their valid Food Manager ID Card. Printed on a durable plastic and covered by a protective overlay, the Food Manager ID includes a color photo, type of Food Manager Certification Exam passed, where the exam was proctored, and the expiration date.
ORS also administers the LIMITED Food Manager Exam and issues the LIMITED Northern Virginia Food Manager ID for persons working at Licensed Food Establishments which serve only pre-prepared foods such as frankfurters, packaged foods heated microwave ovens, etc. Note: Local Health Departments make the determination if a STANDARD or LIMITED Food Protection Manager Certificate is appropriate for each Licensed Food Establishment.
As a means of providing a small measure of relief to Licensed Food Establishments and people working in restaurants and foodservice operations during the ongoing COVID-19 Pandemic Recovery (when most hospitality businesses including our own have struggled mightily), ORS Interactive, Inc., is revising prices and service offerings for Food Manager ID Cards, One-Day (6-Hour) Food Safety Exam Preparation Classes, and Food Protection Manager Certification Exams in our video-proctored, Computer Testing Center (which provides immediate results).
ORS Interactive is placing an even greater on training and remediation—now and in the future. We have changed our policies for “re-taking / auditing” our One-Day (6 Hour) Food Safety Exam Preparation Class to allow those who take the Class and fail the Exam to “re-take / audit” the Class an unlimited number of times without extra cost. We have found this to be successful on a limited basis and are extending this benefit to all our One Day (6-Hour) Food Safety Class participants. We’re also dropping the cost for re-taking the ServSafe Certified Food Protection Manager Exam from $70 to $35 for as many attempts as required to successfully pass the Exam.
