Our online BASSET Certification off-premise training course for liquor, grocery and convenience stores has been approved in Illinois by the Illinois Liquor Control Commission and fully complies with their requirements. Our Basset License is #5A-0110606.
When alcohol is sold "to go" at a grocery, convenience or liquor store, employees can encounter alcohol-related issues. The Illinois Liquor Control Commission recommends that owners and managers of these "Off Premise" establishments take the time and money to train their cashiers, clerks and managers with a BASSET Certification program. Doing so may even lower your liquor liability insurance. Many times, the insurance reduction is greater than the training cost!
BASSET training is not mandatory for off-premise alcohol servers. However, some employers and municipalities in Illinois do require off-premise BASSET training. You are advised to check your local ordinances to see if you must attend BASSET training to work at a liquor establishment.
Remember that "off-premise" indicates that the course is for establishments where the alcohol is sold and then consumed "off the premises" such as a six pack of beer, keg or bottle of wine. The course is 100% online.
Our Off-Premise BASSET Certification course for liquor, grocery and convenience stores is 100% online and approximately three hours in length.
