The workshop will help the state’s food and poultry industry use
process control with statistics to make food products not only
safer, but tastier, too.

Food scientists with the UGA College of Agricultural and
Environmental Sciences will show how to use SPC to:

• Improve processes.
• Validate process capability.
• Troubleshoot manufacturing problems.
• Reduce costs.
• Improve yield.
• Extend shelf life.
• Provide documentation to verify a HACCP program.
• Improve ability to meet or exceed customer
  specifications.

The workshop will be at the Georgia Center for Continuing
Education. Preregistration is required. A $595 workshop fee
(or $650 after July 15) will cover instruction materials,
supplies, three lunches, refreshment breaks, tuition and
certificates.

The fee doesn’t cover lodging, breakfast or evening meals. A
block of rooms is reserved at the Georgia Center until July 15.
