		<description>
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;A Proven Course&lt;/strong&gt; -- More than 13,000 Minnesota foodservice professionals have taken our ServSafe course. The class is based on the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation&apos;s ServSafe Essentials criteria, the industry leader. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Your certification expires three (3) years from the date on your original certificate. &lt;/strong&gt;You must be recertified BEFORE that date. The cities of Minneapolis, St. Paul and Moorhead, and the counties of Hennepin and Ramsey, REQUIRE recertification. Our course meets the recertification requirements.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;2&quot;&gt;We encourage you to review the book you received during your last full-day course. If you do not&amp;nbsp;have a book, you may&amp;nbsp;purchase a copy of the &lt;em&gt;ServSafe Essentials 5th Edition&amp;nbsp;&lt;/em&gt;by calling&amp;nbsp;the National Restaurant Association (800) 765-2122.&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;/font&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;background-color: #ffff00&quot;&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;***Your registration is not complete until we receive a &lt;u&gt;COPY OF YOUR FOOD MANAGER&apos;S CERTIFICATE, WHICH WAS ISSUED BY THE MINNESOTA DEPT OF HEALTH&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;font size=&quot;1&quot;&gt;You can mail the copy to the Association&apos;s office, or fax it to (651) 778-2424&lt;strong&gt;.***&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
