Same URL...New Look and Layout!
Have you seen our new look? Our website got an upgrade over the summer as we joined the Iowa AEA family on the web. If you haven't already, we encourage you to take a look at our new space and become familiar with the new layout for contract and purchasing information.
ServSafe Success
In June of 2023, the AEA Purchasing Food Team taught 13 ServSafe classes across the state of Iowa. 407 AEA Purchasing members from 150 school districts attended class, and 334 (80%) received passing scores of 70% or higher to earn their Food Protection Manager Certification. If someone from your district earned their certification, be sure to give them a pat on the back! Thank you to all who attended classes, and furthered their knowledge of food safety. We appreciate each one of you.
