“The biggest challenge we face in our job today is the ever-growing expertise we're supposed to possess, with ever-shrinking budgets to get the training needed.” Karla Horne, IFPTI student Food Scientist
“What I find most gratifying being an instructor at IFPTI is seeing students walk away with real knowledge and skills.” Mark Reed, IFPTI Instructor Environmental Health Supervisor
