ALS are delighted to announce that Keith Watkins - ALS Company Microbiologist has been selected as a finalist in the Best Trainer category at the forthcoming annual Society of Food Hygiene and Technology awards that will be held on Thursday 18th November 2021 at the The Brewery, in London. This recognition reflects Keith's' contribution to providing a comprehensive range of technical training for ALS clients.
Keith commented on being selected as finalist; "I have been delivering food microbiology training for over 20 years and I have worked on both sides of the industry, food manufacture and contract testing laboratories. I believe that this unique combination gives me the perspective to teach food microbiology to both food manufacturing and laboratory staff at all levels.
I feel that teaching with a relaxed style, and humour, helps to deliver the message about what can be a very complicated area of science. I endeavour to train food microbiology in a practical way which gives people the information on how to perform their roles rather than teach theoretical food microbiology. The advent of online training has been new but I have developed the courses to make the online experience almost as good as face to face training. I am looking forward to attending the SOFHT awards this year as a finalist."
