Our approved courses under Assembly Bill 1221’s Responsible Beverage Service (RBS) Training Program which mandates every alcohol server and alcohol manager be certified under the new state guidelines by July 1, 2022.
This includes anyone who serves alcohol, takes orders for alcohol, pours alcohol, delivers alcohol or checks ID for alcohol service in addition to anyone who oversees, trains or hires those listed above.
The industries we serve include wineries, tasting rooms, breweries, bars, pubs, taverns, nightclubs, restaurants, wineries, fast casual dining, movie theaters, hotels, stadiums, golf courses, and any other ABC licensed premise which serves alcohol for on-site consumption.
The new regulations and course curriculum focuses on the social impact of alcohol, the impact of alcohol on the body, state laws and regulations relating to alcoholic beverage control and driving under the influence, intervention techniques and management policies.
Emphasis is placed on techniques for preventing the sale and service of alcohol to minors (under 21), those who are overly intoxicated and identification of fake ID’s.
Without effective training, businesses face large fines, license suspension or license revocation.
