Online Bar Management

 Our Online Bar Management Certification Program is designed for current or new bar owners, bar managers, or those who are interested in advancing their food and beverage career. Based on our very popular three week Bar Management Program, it is designed to provide students with Industry tools, skills, and knowledge that can immediately be applied to their current or future bar business.

The program's sectional homework assignments will also allow the student to explore new techniques and practices in a real world scenario by applying their new knowledge to actual operations currently in business. Students will also learn and discuss various management practices and pitfalls, as well as industry pressures both financially and emotionally. Students have 120 days from the time of registration to complete the program, but they can also finish it in as little as 3 weeks!

The program is also supported by an online library, chat room, industry links, and a direct connection with the class instructor.
