The AFST(I) Education & Publication Trust met two times during the year and deliberated on
several important agendas.
Certification for Food Technologists: Regarding certification of Food Technologists, it was
decided to get the views of industries by organizing industry meets as half day programs at
metros such as Chennai, Mumbai, Delhi and Kolkata wherever we have AFST(I) chapters. During
the industry/academia meet at Chennai, it was felt that such certification and the scores would be
beneficial for students and recruiters as well.

announcement in order to reach more number of students to apply for the Trust scholarship as
suggested by the previous awards committee The student applying for the scholarship will have to
be studying in the second year.
