#1 - The training agenda
Who it's for: Managers who know raw egg well and want to walk staff through the basics in a quick session, with a record it happened.
What it is: In-house raw egg safety training is a short session a manager delivers to staff. This version is the agenda for that session: a checklist of the points to cover, the salmonella risk in raw and lightly cooked eggs, using pasteurised egg for those dishes, the difference Lion-mark eggs make, the extra care for vulnerable groups, storing eggs cold and in date, avoiding cross-contamination from shells, and when pasteurised egg is required, plus a field for the names of everyone trained.
In practice: A bar manager gathers two commis before service, runs through the pasteurised-egg rule for sour cocktails and vulnerable-group guidance, and types in who attended. Fifteen minutes, and a dated record the team was trained.
Why it works: The agenda sits on the canvas, so the session covers the same ground every time, whoever runs it. Capturing the names in the same step means one record covers the session, whether you train one person or the whole bar team.
Steps included:
- 1 checklist (6 raw egg points to cover)
- 1 field for who was trained (names)
#2 - With a group photo
Who it's for: Operations that want a photo on the training record as proof the session actually happened, not just a name typed in a box.
What it is: The training agenda plus a group photo of the staff who were trained, kept on the record alongside the names. A quick snap at the end of the session, and the record carries a picture of who was there.
In practice: The bar manager finishes running through the points, gathers the team for a quick photo, and saves. The training record now has the agenda, the names, and a photo of the group, one tap to produce if an auditor ever asks who was trained and when.
What it adds to the training agenda:
- A group photo as proof the session ran, harder to dispute than a typed name
- A visual record kept next to the names, in the same session
- Something concrete to show an EHO or auditor beyond a text log
Why it works: A photo of the group is quick to take and hard to fake, so the record carries proof the training happened, not just a note that it did.
Steps included:
- 1 checklist (6 raw egg points to cover)
- 1 field for who was trained (names)
- 1 group photo of the session
How to pick the right version
You don't need to know our product to choose. Both versions are the same training agenda; the second just keeps a photo on the record too.
Do you just need a record the session ran?
If a dated agenda with the names of who attended is enough, #1 is all you need. It covers the same ground every session and gives you a record it happened.
Do you want photo proof on the record?
If you want a picture of the group alongside the names, so the record shows who was trained, #2 adds a group photo of the session.

Conclusion
In-house raw egg safety training turns the pasteurised-egg rule and the vulnerable-group point into a short repeatable session with a record it happened. The first version logs the agenda and who attended. The second keeps a group photo of the session on the record as evidence.
