Wednesday, October 03 to Thursday, October 04, 2012
Millennium Knickerbocker, Chicago, IL

Update your food law IQ at ACI’s FDA & USDA Compliance Boot Camp and learn how to navigate the complex world of food regulations

FDA...USDAFTC…all have a hand in the regulation of food products. Each with
their own set of requirements for food, beverage, poultry, meat and egg products, it is not uncommon for the many agencies involved in the regulation of ‘food’ to have overlapping and even confl icting jurisdiction. Making it extremely diffi cult for the inhouse food lawyer, regulatory, compliance or government affairs executive to keep track of all the relevant regulatory requirements, one must constantly monitor changes to the law governing food products in order to minimize any risk of non-compliance.

Learn how to connect the dots of food regulatory law while gaining a clearer understanding of how the FDA, USDA and FTC work together to regulate the food industry.

Developed specifically to provide a forum for in-house counsel, regulatory, compliance and government affairs executives as well as private practice lawyers to gain a comprehensive overview of food law and regulation, this comprehensive Boot Camp will provide attendees with the ultimate roadmap to navigating the complex world of food regulations.

Led by a distinguished faculty comprised of senior-level in-house counsel and food law experts, American Conference Institute’s FDA & USDA Compliance Boot Camp will engage attendees in a deep-dive, two-day examination of food law fundamentals, including an intense exploration of the regulations governing:

  • Food ingredients and additives
  • Product labels
  • Food and beverage marketing and advertising claims
  • Food safety

Also get brought up to speed on the current status of proposed and new regulatory requirements under FSMA focused on:

  • Food imports
  • Inspections
  • Food and animal feed

An added benefit of attending this event, participants will walk away from this Boot Camp with a print copy of all conference materials, including references and copies of all the key regulations governing food products. Keep this binder as a point of reference and regulatory guide that can be shared and utilized as an information resource once back in the office.
