Maine Responsible Alcohol Sales
Module Overview
“According to the Center for Disease Control (CDC), excessive alcohol consumption contributes to more than 4,300 deaths among underage youth, that is, persons less than 21 years of age, in the United States each year.”
Responsible Alcohol Sales training is necessary to prevent alcohol sales to minors and the use of fraudulent ID cards, and to protect the store from consequences of illegal sales of alcohol.
This module covers the laws regarding alcohol sales, how to check IDs, including spotting fake IDs, and how to identify and handle suspicious behavior during alcohol sales. Employees learn that they too can be held liable for accidents, property damage, and deaths resulting from illegal sales of alcohol in your store.
RTO’s Maine Responsible Alcohol Sales online course is approved by the Maine Bureau of Alcoholic Beverages and Lottery Operations (BABLO). Employees who successfully complete this training will be awarded a certificate of completion that is good for three years.
