Marks & Spencer is renowned for its superior quality and innovation, which is underpinned by the talented and capable team behind the scenes. In recognition of this, Marks & Spencer's Continuing Professional Development Scheme (CPD) for its Food Technologists is the first of its kind to be accredited by the Institute of Food Science & Technology (IFST).
Marks & Spencer is the first retailer to join forces with the UK's most widely recognised professional body for food scientists and technologists in the food industry.
David Gregory, Head of Food Technology at Marks & Spencer, comments: "We are extremely proud of our top class team of food technologists however we continually encourage everyone to extend their professional knowledge and skills through our now leading training programme".
"The CPD scheme offers our technologists independent accreditation and endorsement by the foremost professional qualifying body for the food industry, which in turn enhances the professional status of our team both in the UK and worldwide".
