Various local government authorities provide their own food safety training also.

Environmental Health Australia (EHA) is the premier environmental health professional organisation in Australia. EHA provides leadership for the profession and supports member development.

EHA's overarching role is to enhance environmental health and safety in the community through the work of its members and in collaboration with other agencies, through advocacy, promotion, education and leadership.

EHA members are employed in a diverse range of settings including local, state and territory government authorities; in the academic, research and private sectors; and the defence force.

Within Australia, EHA has member organisations in each state and territory. State environmental health associations support professional development and leadership through an annual conference, in supporting regional groups and special interest groups and through other professional development activities.

EHA has been in existence since 1936 and has undergone several name changes over time to reflect the changing nature of the organisation and its membership.

It is a founding member of the International Federation of Environmental Health (IFEH) which includes 45 environmental health associations around the world.
