Course programme
This one-day course is designed to provide you with essential knowledge and understanding of the responsibilities of alcohol retailers authorised by a personal licence holder to sell alcohol. It will enable those who complete the qualification to act within the law to support the designated premises supervisor to retail alcohol responsibly on their licensed premises.
The BIIAB Level 1 Award in Responsible Alcohol Retailing ("BIIAB Level 1 ARAR") provides additional protection to licensed premises operators and candidates alike as it contains three mandatory questions that ensure every candidate fully understands the legislation concerning underage sales, serving persons who are drunk, and the licensing objectives.
