Procurement Masterclass-Part 1: Take the Guesswork Out of Procurement
Build a stronger purchasing process from menu to procurement.

School nutrition procurement involves more than finding the right products at the right price. Your purchasing decisions must also meet federal requirements, support your cycle menu, and protect your program financially.

This course breaks procurement regulations into a practical framework so you understand what is required, where to find the regulations, and how to build a sound purchasing process.
