Professional Training for Licensed Premises
Licensed premises, as suppliers of alcohol and providers of a venue for consumption of alcohol, have a crucial role to play in terms of reducing alcohol related harm. Professional training for licensed premises focuses on the key role of staff who work in licensed premises in ensuring that they are behave as a responsible host. The training is aimed at door staff, managers, glassies as well as bar staff who can all be the first point of contact in a licensed premise.

- Role and duties of a door person/security
- Intoxication
- Underage drinking
- Intoxication
- Body language
- Removing a disruptive group
