Sessions cover topics such as electronic record-keeping\, workforce training\, chemical safety\, food adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, audit readiness\, product development\, environmental air quality\, and alternative protein innovations. The series is designed for food producers\, processors\, seafood businesses\, entrepreneurs\, quality assurance staff\, extension educators\, students\, faculty\, regulatory professionals\, and technical specialists\, with particular relevance for those working with food safety training\, compliance systems\, seafood hazards\, product development\, and emerging technologies in food processing. \nFood businesses and professionals face increasing regulatory expectations\, evolving hazards\, and rapid technological change. By addressing real-world topics such as digital compliance systems\, chemical handling\, adulteration prevention\, seafood pathogen detection\, and audit preparation\, the series helps participants stay current and make informed\, practical decisions. Participants will gain practical tools\, real-world case studies\, and actionable strategies related to training programs\, compliance documentation\, safe chemical use\, adulteration prevention\, seafood safety\, product innovation\, and environmental controls—knowledge they can immediately apply in their operations\, classrooms\, or regulatory work. \nFood Adulteration Training\nFood adulteration whether economically motivated\, intentional\, or accidental poses significant risks to public health and brand integrity. This webinar will provide a thorough overview of different types of adulteration\, including dilution\, substitution\, concealment\, and mislabeling. Attendees will learn about key tools for prevention and detection\, such as supply chain verification\, laboratory testing methods\, and vulnerability assessments as part of a Food Fraud Prevention plan. The session will also examine relevant regulations\, including the FSMA Mitigation Strategies for Intentional Adulteration (IA) rule\, and provide a framework for developing and implementing a proactive adulteration risk management program. \nTo Register and Receive Webinar Zoom Link URL:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-food-adulteration-training/ CATEGORIES:Conferences & Workshops,Online Events ORGANIZER;CN="91¸ŁŔű Cooperative Extension":MAILTO:extension@maine.edu LOCATION:/calendar/event/food-safety-webinar-series-food-adulteration-training/ END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT DTSTART;TZID=America/New_York:20260605T100000 DTEND;TZID=America/New_York:20260605T170000 DTSTAMP:20260523T055345 CREATED:20260515T155928Z LAST-MODIFIED:20260515T155928Z UID:10010655-1780653600-1780678800@umaine.edu SUMMARY:Zillman Art Museum Exhibitions DESCRIPTION:The Zillman Art Museum’s current exhibitions will be on display starting May 15th through September 5th\, 2026. \nExhibitions featured: Gerri Rachins: Selected Works on Paper\, 2008 – 2025; Helter Skelter Paradise: Sam Cady; Thuan Vu: Kintsugi in the New World; Under the Big Top: Works from the Collection\, Featuring Alexander Nolan; and Society & Power: Curatorial Intern 2026. \nNote: Thuan Vu: Kintsugi in the New World and Society & Power: Curatorial Intern 2026 will be on display through August 22\, 2026.
