Will I receive a certificate for bartending?
Yes, you will receive professional certification for all bar classes listed on this web site. Laws vary from state to state
and there are many types of certification. Though it is very important that you understand the laws and responsibilities
of serving alcohol, you should be leery of anyone who tells you that certification is a legal requirement in the state of
California. Additionally, there is no such thing as a bartending license. The establishment that is selling alcohol must
have a state-issued license.
How can I learn everything I need to know about bartending in 6 hours?
In this class you will learn valuable information that will make you a superior bartender and a good employee.
Additionally, you will be sent home with recipes to learn and detailed instruction to practice pouring the perfect shot.
This is all you need to get started.
Am I guaranteed job placement?
You should be very skeptical of anyone who promises you job placement. That is not possible. You may be given
leads, but you will have to get the job on your own. Additionally, keep in mind that every other student will be given the
same leads. The Business of Bartending and Bartending the Easy Way Online include thorough coverage of
resumes, experience and job interviews, which is how you will get a job. You will be given leads, but you will have to
make the contacts yourself, just like any other class.
Why are there so many bartenders who have never taken any kind of class?
Bartending requires confidence, intellect, common sense, patience, endurance and multi-tasking skills, which cannot
be taught in any bartending class. The Business of Bartending and Bartending the Easy Way Online will teach you
everything you need to know to be a working bartender, if you also have the skills necessary for the job. If you can't
bartend after this class, 40 hours or even 80 hours in another class will not help. It is not difficult for someone with the
right skills, but will seem impossible for someone who doesn't have them. It's not about the class.
Can an older person get a job bartending?
You should think about working with a clientele that is near your own age. Since there are bars for all ages, then
anyone should be able to find a job.
How would this class help me get a job?
Besides giving you job leads, The Business of Bartending and Bartending the Easy Way Online stress customer
service, which is actually the most difficult part of bartending. Since Kellie Nicholson has been hired at between 60
and 70 establishments and has managed and hired the staff in many bars, she will teach you what managers look for
in their bar employees. You will also learn how the bar business works, which makes you a valued employee.
How is this class different from others?
Though it is most beneficial to learn all of the drink recipes and to know how to mix the cocktails, that is only a very
small part of becoming a professional bartender. Memorizing 100 recipes means that you have a good memory, but
won't necessarily make you a great bartender. In fact, you will most likely only use about 30 recipes regularly. Most of
the time you will be opening beer, pouring wine and mixing highballs that have only one type of alcohol and a mixer.
There is so much more involved in working behind the bar and this class focuses on the most important aspects of
bartending in the real world. Yes, the fun part is mixing the cocktails, but often the principles of the business, customer
service and ethics are overlooked areas of the job. To be absolutely honest, bartending is a career that demands
great intelligence, quick-thinking, an excellent memory, physical stamina and superior multi-tasking skills. These
talents cannot be taught in any bartending class. However, since there are all types of bartending jobs that require
many different levels of skill, anyone can become a bartender. When researching your choice of a bartending
education, keep in mind the factors that are necessary to perform all aspects of the job.
Steer clear of classes that teach outdated recipes and ways of pouring. If a school is teaching you to count when you
pour your shots or to hold onto the pour spout with your finger, then they are out of touch with newer, professional
techniques.
What if I prefer to learn at my own pace?
You can take Bartending the Easy Way Online from a respected community college in your area. Check the
Class Schedules to find a school near you or sign up online at any of the schools, no matter where you are. Or you
can take the course directly from this site, see Online Courses. As with all of the classes, you will have homework,
but will be taught in detail all you need to know.
