The issue of organizing laboratory and practical training in the field of food education directly impacts the quality of specialist training, graduates' adaptation to production conditions, and their ability to make responsible decisions regarding food safety. Disciplines such as food technology, microbiology, and chemistry are not limited to theoretical knowledge alone but require precise measurement, experimentation, and analysis. In food education, laboratory training is based on didactic principles: scientific rigor, visual representation, active engagement, systematic approach, and the unity of theory and practice. Based on a competency-based approach, students develop technological, analytical, hygienic, and safety competencies. The integration of theory and practice is implemented at interdisciplinary, theoretical-practical, and educational-production levels. The methodological support, safety requirements, and assessment criteria for laboratory training must be systematically organized. Laboratory and practical training form the core competency-building component of food education; their effective organization fosters practical skills, professional attitudes, and a culture of quality and safety in students.
