The Professional Bartending School has trained thousands of bartenders and servers in the Tennessee area in getting their server permits. We believe in teaching a high quality program here at our campus. This is why we have chosen to teach the ServSafe Alcohol program.

Over the years, we have taught many responsible alcohol programs such as the TIPS Server Training Program and the Barcode program, but we feel the ServSafe Program by the National Restaurant Association is the best program available.

ServSafe Alcohol is a real world preparation for any situation. Responsible alcohol service is an issue that touches your business, your customers and your community.

That’s why the National Restaurant Association Education Foundation (NRAEF) developed the ServSafe Alcohol Program to raise the bar in responsible alcohol service training and certification. ServSafe Alcohol is today’s real-world training solution, with practical knowledge and best-in-class resources that help to prepare and protect every operation every day.

The cost for the 5 hour ServSafe class to receive your Alcoholic Beverage Commission’s server permit is $65.00. Upon passing the ServSafe class, students must take their notorized application to the Alcoholic Beverage Commission with $20.00 to receive their permanent 5 year permit. Our classes are held twice monthly on Sundays at the Professional Bartending School campus. You must pre-register and pay in advance to save yourself a spot in our ABC Class. Our classes fill up fast so contact us as soon as possible to guarantee your spot in our class.
