#smartservefacts The legal age to sell, serve, deliver, or handle alcohol in Ontario is 18 years of age. This means you must be at least 18 years old to work in roles such as bartending, serving alcohol in restaurants, delivering alcohol, or handling alcohol in retail stores. Remember that you need to complete the Smart Serve certification before you can begin working with alcohol. Stay informed and follow the rules to keep your workplace safe and compliant! ✅ #smartserve #responsiblesale #responsibleservice #liquor #ontario #online #training #ecertificate #alcoholpolicy #recertification #howto #finaltest #tokens

❓ Do I need the Smart Serve Retail course if I’m already certified with the full course? The Smart Serve Full Course allows you to work in any establishment that sells, serves, handles, delivers, or offers samples of alcohol. This certification covers everything, from bars and restaurants to retail environments. The Smart Serve Retail Course, on the other hand, is only for those working in retail environments where alcohol is sold and cannot be used in licensed establishments serving alcohol. So, if you have the full course, you’re all set for any role involving alcohol. Make sure to choose the right course for your career needs! #smartservefacts #smartserve #responsiblesale #responsibleservice #liquor #ontario #online #training #ecertificate #alcoholpolicy #recertification #howto #finaltest #retail

#smartservefacts Understanding the difference between Smart Serve training programs is essential to picking the right course. ✅ The Smart Serve Full Course is designed for individuals who are selling, serving, handling, delivering, or offering samples of alcohol, including security personnel, in Ontario. The Smart Serve Retail Course is specifically for those working in retail environments where alcohol is sold. Please note that this certification is not valid for those working in licensed establishments serving alcohol. Ensure you select the appropriate course to meet your professional needs. #smartserve #responsiblesale #responsibleservice #liquor #ontario #online #training #ecertificate #alcoholpolicy #recertification #howto #finaltest
