Off-site Food Worker Card Classes are available by request.
For an off-site class, you must have a minimum of 20 people for the class. The class is scheduled for 2 hours and can be scheduled generally anytime during the day or evening Monday through Thursday. If you decide to have the class in the evening, it must be opened to the public, which means that we advertise the class on our phone line. You are responsible to collect money from people who attend and get their food worker cards out to them. Generally, the class will not last the full 2 hours, but it must start on time. The facility must be non-smoking during the class, handicap accessible, and no small children are allowed in the classroom. Snohomish Health District will not collect any money at the time of the class, once the tests are turned in at Snohomish Health District we will bill you ($10.00 per test) and once they receive payment they will send the cards to you for distribution. We generally schedule classes 1-2 months in advance. Call (425) 339-5250 to request a class or contact us by us e-mail: foodworkercard@shd.snohomish.wa.gov
