Preferred By General Liability Insurance Carriers

We are the preferred alcohol training provider for many liability insurance carriers across the United States, so thousands of businesses and professionals trust us. Most liability insurance carriers for alcohol-serving establishments (restaurants, bars, taverns, nightclubs, and other establishments) require all employees to take and pass an alcohol training course and become state alcohol certified. Our training allows you and your staff to remain current with state laws, rules, and regulations regarding the service of alcohol.

How To Avoid Lawsuits Before They Happen

While creating repeat business and making money is critical, it's also extremely important to keep in mind the different legal implications of selling and serving alcohol. Dramshop, server liability, illegal intoxication, DUIs, fake IDs, and minors can end up costing you thousands of dollars, so responsible alcohol training and certification are key. Liquor control commissions, regulators, and general liability insurance carriers want you – business owners and professionals – to know how to protect yourself and your business. After taking and passing our alcohol training course and becoming state alcohol certified, you and your business will have peace of mind and the knowledge to guide your work.

What Is The Alcohol Certification Called

There are different terms for alcohol training and being alcohol certified. They usually vary by state, but all require a training course to be completed. Some state alcohol training certifications may be called a bartending license, bartending certification, or responsible alcohol training certification. Being alcohol certified significantly reduces an alcohol-serving establishment’s liability. It means knowing the signs of when someone is possibly impaired and how to intervene should it be necessary. It could mean the difference between an establishment losing its liquor license or reducing its fines should it be found liable. It is always worth it to have your staff take an alcohol training certification test and become alcohol certified. In many states, it is mandatory by law.
