TummySafe© is offered as a traditional class and as a non-traditional, self paced CD version.

The traditional class is a one day class and costs $100.  To register for a class, please contact the Instructor listed in the class calendar below.

The CD version may be purchased for $25 using the form linked here and completed on the participant's personal computer, at their pace.  Most CD orders are shipped the day they are received.  Multiple participants can use the same CD for 6 contact hours each whether they complete the exam or not.  Once the participant finishes the CD, an 80% or greater score on the Certification exam is required for TummySafe© Certification.  The exam fee is $100 per participant.

To order a TummySafe© exam, send $100 money order/certified check per person to:

TummySafe© Exam Request/ Jenna Schilling
School of Human Sciences
Box 9745
MSU, MS 39762

Be sure to include all your contact information including phone numbers and the county where you would like to take your exam.  Make money order/certified check to School of Human Sciences. Or use the Exam Invoice linked here!

Once exam payment is received, the participant’s local Proctor will call to schedule an exam date and time.  Most exam dates can be scheduled within 30 days of exam payment, often within 2 weeks of payment.

If you are in a hurry, you may pay for both the CD and the exam with one money order for $125 as you order the CD.  The local proctor will call you to set up an exam date as your CD is mailed to you.

Exam results are usually sent out within 2 weeks of test date.
