Virtual Nuts & Bolts of School Nutrition Programs
The Virtual Nuts & Bolts of School Nutrition Programs includes sixteen 15-60 minute recorded training sessions on essential school nutrition topics presented by the Education Specialists from the Office for Food and Nutrition Programs at DESE. Sessions include COVID-19 specific information effective at the time of the recording. Please be sure to check the DESE website for updates. Select the topics relevant to your learning needs and view on your schedule. At the end of each session, you will have access to a survey and a certificate of training.
