A TABC CERTIFICATE- A VALUABLE SIGN OF ACCOMPLISHMENT

Anyone who works in a place that serves alcohol, such as a restaurant, bar, food truck, or convenience store, should hold a TABC Certificate to show they understand the laws regarding alcohol sales. If you would like to know alcohol laws so that you can better protect yourself against legal repercussions, this training will be valuable for your job.

HOW IS A TABC CERTIFICATE USED?

Holding a TABC Certificate shows employers that you have passed the minimum requirement of understanding the laws governing the sale of alcohol. Employers can check your certificate status through our on-line system, or through TABC's website

When applying for jobs, you may call yourself a "Responsible Training TABC Certificate Recipient". You can refer to your "Responsible Training TABC Certificate" on your resume.

You may not say or imply that you are "certified," "certificated," "licensed," "registered" or "accredited"; these terms indicate a different type of program than seller-server training.

FOR HOW LONG IS THE CERTIFICATE VALID?

The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission has set the validity of a TABC certificate at 2 years. It will be printed on your certificate and may be checked by using our online verification program.

Upon successful completion of this training program, you will understand:

• The definition of intoxication and the dangers of alcohol poisoning
