  Course #9000

  This training course is available throughout the fiscal year. This course can be completed within approximately 6 hours total time at your own pace. We recommend you complete the course within 2 weeks of the date you begin.

   

  Once you have completed the training, please complete the course evaluation form located at the bottom of this page.

  Before beginning, please open the Introduction presentation below to learn how to navigate the training system features.

  Click on the topics below in order to open the presentations covering background/overview information and step-by-step tutorials on how to perform the export tasks in PHIS. In the lower righthand corner of many slides, there are buttons which connect you to audio voice-overs and transcripts--use of these is entirely optional. You will also find key PHIS export references at the bottom of this page. 

  This training focuses on how to perform the Export Certification functions in PHIS as outlined in FSIS Directive 13,000.5. It covers how to perform the Export Certification task (CSI and PHV roles), approve or reject export applications, replacement certificates, and sign/print the export certificate. In addition, the review of the Form 9080-3 (Establishment Application for Export) in PHIS is covered. This course is updated to include changes made to the PHIS Export Certification function as outlined in recent FSIS Notices. You will find links to all the most recent FSIS Notices related to PHIS Exports in the "Resources" section at the bottom of this homepage.  

  *Disclaimer: The scenarios/examples used are for training purposes only and not inclusive of all importing country requirements. Some countries used in the examples may not yet be active in PHIS for export certification. There may be minor differences in the PHIS demonstration screens shown vs. the current PHIS live version due to ongoing enhancements. Always refer to the most recent Directives, Notices, and Export Library found on the FSIS website.

  Once you have finished the course, close the window to return to the course page in AgLearn, then proceed to "Step 2: Assessment" and complete the short quiz.

  3. PHIS Export Task (part 2) - Applying Signatures, Printing, Scanning, Uploading, Task Completion

  PHIS will display one of the two different methods IPP use to sign export documents after the Approve and Sign button is selected. This section covers the second part of the Export Certification Task to sign, print, upload, and complete the task. Video step-by-step instructions are included to show how to do these steps in PHIS for each signature method.

  *Instructions regarding use of PHIS for Export Certification are frequently changing. Always refer to PHIS and the FSIS Export Library to determine the appropriate signature method for each importing country. Currently, none of the 149 countries active in PHIS require manual signatures on certificates printed on FSIS security paper (all require digital signatures on certificates printed on standard white paper). Therefore, there is no uploading of completed signed certificate packages into PHIS. However, this does not preclude that some countries may revert to manual signatures in the future, so be sure to stay current on the most recent FSIS Notices addressing export certification.

  5. 9080-3 Establishment Application for Export - Overview, Approval, Rejection

  This section provides an overview of the 9080-3 Establishment Application for Export and also step-by-step instructions on how to approve or reject the application in PHIS. As you receive these applications in your establishments, bear in mind two very important points about the 9080-3:

  (a) Not every importing country requires exporters to submit a Form 9080-3 to certify eligibility. Check the Export Library to see whether or not it is required.

  (b) If it is required, and the establishment submits a 9080-3 for approval, carefully check to ensure the exporter has completed the form accurately, including attaching any required supplemental documents. These applications are routed all the way up to FSIS Headquarters for final approval, and incorrect applications may cause unnecessary delays in certifying eligibility.
