BARTENDING SCHOOL MYTHS: DO I NEED A BARTENDING CERTIFICATE?
Often times, those who have never attended Bartending School, speak negatively about them because they don’t understand the true benefits of attending Bartending School. Although Bartending School is not a requirement to secure bartending jobs, bartenders who did not take the time to formally educate themselves, likely find themselves “working their way up” for 6 months to a year by working as servers or wait staff before ever mixing a cocktail behind the bar. Bartending is a trade that takes time and plenty of practice to perfect and it is very difficult to know everything about the industry through self-taught training.
Because the craft of mixology takes time and practice, most bar managers do not have the extra time or the money to teach bartenders the basics such as glassware, pouring and mixing techniques, brands of liquor and liqueurs, how to up-sell to maximize profits and the aesthetic properties of cocktails. In today’s economy, managers are looking to hire people with the right skill set to get the job done and hit the ground running with very little hand holding. Bartending School is the perfect place to gain a foundational understanding of the industry and makes an individual that much more marketable because they took the time to invest into their skill and completely learn the trade.

ARE ONLINE BARTENDING SCHOOLS REALLY EASIER?
First you must ask yourself, “Would I learn how to drive a car online?” Hopefully, you quickly answered “No”. The bartending industry is similar to learning how to drive a car. You must practice and learn how to master this craft through physical hands-on training. In today’s society access to information is quicker and easier than ever before. The internet is now the number one resource tool to search for facts and data and has even become an easy source to earn academic degrees. Although, this new wave of convenience exists, it will never replace the value and importance of face-to-face learning.
Sure, many online bartending schools will provide you with a DVD and a step-by-step guide to learn the craft of mixology. However, you have to spend time and money searching for all of the liquor bottles, the mixers, the proper bartending equipment and the space in your home to actually practice. One of the many things that are missing is the reinforcement of the instructor showing you how to properly mix the drink and helping you perfect the techniques. Physical Bartending Schools provide you with the space, the proper equipment and the face-to-face interaction with instructors to help you become successful as a certified bartender.

The Party Planning Equation
For example, if you are expecting 50 guests and your event will last 4 hours, you will need to prepare for 200 servings (50 X 4 = 200). The beverage servings may consist of mixed drinks, beer, wine, soda or water. Ultimately, knowing the average consumption of your guests will increase the accuracy of your estimate.
Now, this equation is very simple to apply for events serving beer, wine and soda only. However, for those events where mixed drinks will be served, the estimation gets a bit more complicated...but not impossible. When you contract our services, you will receive our complimentary beverage consultation to help you estimate exactly what you need based upon your beverage menu.
