TRAINING SEMINAR:
Updated E. Coli Policy Implementation and Control Measures

June 11, 2008

Sheraton Gateway Hotel, Toronto

You are invited to attend the special E. coli Training Seminar sponsored by the Canadian Meat Council and the North American Meat Processors Association. The seminar provides an excellent opportunity for your company's technical and management staff to update their knowledge on E. coli O157:H7 control strategies in the meat industry, including regulatory, scientific and trade considerations.

This is a very timely educational event since an updated E. coli O157:H7 policy is being implemented in Canada and United States. Several respected speakers from governments and research centers will attend the seminar and cover different topics including new Canadian and US regulatory requirements and implementation strategies. You also will learn many practical examples of E. coli O157:H7 control measures from major Canadian slaughter and processing plants.

Should you wish to take part of this special training seminar, please complete the registration form and return to the address indicated, along with your payment. We look forward to your participation. Seats are limited so we recommend reserving as soon as possible.

If you have any question or require further information about the program, please contact Blaise Ouattara, Canadian Meat Council, at (613) 729-3911 ext. 23 or e-mail: info@cmc-cvc.com.
