Implementation of food and feed law and practical examples into study materials for the study program Feed and Food Safety in the distance form of education

Food can pose a risk to public health. It is therefore necessary to ensure the absence or at least an acceptable and safe level of risks that could endanger or harm the health of the consumer after consumption. The comprehensive and integrated system of rules established by legislation covers the entire food chain, from feed to plant health and protection, animal health, food production, processing, storage, transport, import, export and placing on the market. The objectives of education in the study program Safety of Feeds and Foodstuffs are methodically based on the European Qualifications Framework for lifelong learning. It defines the requirements for learning outcomes for knowledge, skills and competences. The bearers of central knowledge are profile subjects, which include the compulsory study subject Food and Feed Legislation. The study aims to mastering the knowledge of possible aspects of the emergence of dangerous influences, factors and biological agents threatening the health safety of feed and food, knowledge and proper application of legal standards to ensure the protection of human and animal health and the environment. These facts, as well as the need to ensure high quality teaching in the process of transition from full-time education to distance learning, were the reason for developing a project proposal aimed at preparing study material for the study subject Food and Feed Legislation.
