The objective of this research project was to develop a useful, validated training manual to be used by supervisors in small foodservice operations and government-funded nutrition programs that do not have access to the services of a registered dietitian. The accuracy of the content was critiqued by an expert panel. The pilot phase was conducted at one congregate dining site to assess and revise problems involving evaluation design. The model phase evaluated the trainer's ability to use the manual and the worker's knowledge and performance as a result of training. Foodservice workers' scores after training were significantly higher than scores before training (p less than .01). Performance evaluations 4 weeks after training showed a significant positive change in work behavior (p less than .001) over evaluations before training. At 8 weeks a return to pretraining behavior was observed. The project showed that regular in-service training sessions conducted in short segments that are inexpensive and continuous would be valuable in any foodservice operation with limited access to dietitians. Benefits from such training include improved efficiency of food preparation and service, better quality of products produced, increased cost-effectiveness, and higher employee morale.
