With the implementation of the U.S. FDA Modernization Act, the U.S. Food Safety Modernization Act requires all low-acid and acidified canned foods exported to the United States to comply with the relevant U.S. FDA regulations. Therefore, Chinese canned food companies need BPCS training, establish complete operating procedures, and strictly implement the procedures in production.

The US FDA's Regulations 113 (low-acid canned food) and 114 (acidified food) also stipulate that all low-acid and acidified canning factories that export to the United States must have a business executive who has participated in BPCS training and obtained a certificate. The supervisor supervises the operation of the sterilizer and sealer throughout the process. The Chinese Academy of Inspection and Quarantine also recommends that factories with two-shift systems require two personnel to participate in BPCS training to ensure food production safety.

Beginning last year, the U.S. FDA expanded the proportion of factory inspections in China. In the next five years, all food production companies exported to the United States will be inspected and re-inspected every three years. On the first day of the training, Huang Yaowen, the lifetime honorary professor of the Department of Food Science and Technology at the University of Georgia, Dr. Zhang Jianhua, and Dr. Yue Jin, the associate professors of the Department of Food Science and Technology at Shanghai Jiaotong University, gave the trainees five lessons, including American laws and regulations, food-borne microorganisms, and principles of thermal sterilization. Explanation of chapter content. At the end of each chapter of the course, the students immediately carried out the assessment of the content of the chapter. The training and learning are carried out in an intense and orderly manner. The trainees said that the training content is closely related to the actual production. The teacher's explanation is vivid and scientific. The training is very helpful to standardize the production operation and respond to the US FDA inspection.
