Get hands-on practice with a bartending practice kit
The practice kit provides the right tools for the right job. That is why
bartending schools are set up like actual bars--it allows the students to practice their drinks. To get the most out of this course, we recommend adding a practice kit that includes the tools you will need. Our Super Deluxe bartender practice kit contains all the items needed including bottles, glassware, and store 'n pour containers. You can purchase our complete kits at a discount when you enroll in a
course combo package.
This certification is separate from
bartender or mixology training / certification.
Alcohol server certification training covers serving alcohol responsibly and state laws for serving alcohol. The
bartender license training is approved by state liquor control boards in most states. We offer the state-specific
alcohol server certification courses online that will satisfy the requirements in most areas.
Alcohol server certification is commonly called a "bartender license"

Some areas require alcohol seller/server certification to ensure that employees understand the liquor laws in their state and serve alcohol responsibly. Anyone who sells or serves alcohol should take this training to receive their
bartender license, which may also be required in your state. This includes Bartenders, Servers, Bar Backs, Managers and Liquor Store Clerks.
Reasons to Take the Alcohol Server Certification Course
- The state requires everyone who sells or serves alcohol to have this certificate or permit
- The state offers reduced penalties for infractions related to serving alcohol if the seller/server has taken alcohol certification, responsible server training
- The bar or restaurant where you are trying to work requires it as part of their employment policy
- Businesses can receive benefits from the liquor authority or alcohol beverage control if all of their servers have this certificate
- Employers receive discounts on their liquor liability insurance if their servers have this certificate
- Businesses are required to have their servers certified as a result of past alcohol infractions (selling to underage customers, serving intoxicated customers, etc)
