How old do I need to be to become a bartender ?

18 years old is the legal age:  Yes it is the law in Massachusetts and in most states that bartenders & all servers of alcohol need to be at least 18 years old.  The drinking age in most states is 21.

 
Is your bartending training all hands-on?

80% Hands-on Training:  Our bartending training is approximately 80% hands-on behind a fully functional training bar.  Everything is real with the exception of the alcohol.  Our alcohol is simulated with color pigments for a real drink looking effect.

No Real Alcohol: It is illegal for a school to have on premises alcohol of any kind.  When it comes time to teach layered drinks, flamed drinks & pouring beer, short quality video clips are essential for explaining these subjects. 

Visual Equipment:  Every successful training program should have visual equipment & tutorials that follow and support the hands-on program to help people at all levels to learn better. 

Training Web Site:  Our training web site has flash video clips that help students review lessons better than any bartenders manual, right from their computer. 


Do bartenders need to be certified ?

Certification is mandatory:   it is the law in Massachusetts & in most states that servers of alcohol are certified with an approved alcohol training program.  Make sure the school you choose includes this certification if not ask about additional fees. 


Why is it so important to visit before choosing a school ?

Visit & Compare:

  1. Visiting a school is the only way to determine value & quality.  Request a complete Program Out-line.

  2. Make sure that they are a school just about phone sales.

  3. Here are some links to check business records:

Have you ever looked around a bar, curiously envying the happy bartenders having a great time while raking in gobs of money? Did you wonder how they learned the skills necessary to pour drinks so quickly, remember all those recipes, and keep their cool all at the same time? How did they get there?

SCHOOL VIDEO

As Boston's oldest...New England Bartending Schools have created bartending programs that answer the demand for professionally trained bartenders. We provide the bartending education, the speed, the organizational skills as well as customer service and alcohol awareness at our school. Then we will follow up your training with the best job placement assistance available anywhere in the nation.

Like graduate bartender Sean Roach, 7 out of 10 bartenders will attend a professional licensed bartending school to facilitate their entry into this lucrative profession. Without the professional bartending training that is all but required by popular bars, clubs and restaurants these days, you won’t stand a chance of beating out those that have it.

"After bartending for a few years at a local watering hole & I wanted to get a better job.  I knew I need to learn more about bartending and searched around for professional bar training.  After checking out a few schools, I decided to enroll with NEBS.  I visited & found them to have the most complete program and their training facilities were exceptional!  Soon after graduation, I was hired by the "99" Restaurant.  After about 2 years of bartending there, I was hired by NEBS as a part-time instructor and I was approved by the MA Dept of ED to teach the course.   I left the school only to move to Harrisburg Pennsylvania where I opened Capitol Bartending School...my very own bartending school!  I strongly recommend New England Bartending Schools in every way!  All the other students in my class also loved the school too!  Visit & you'll see what I mean when I say that all the people there are very nice & very sincere!  I am so glad I went to NEBS & as you can see through this real life story that the school certainly changed my life!"
