RAMP Server/Seller Training
Responsible alcohol training is mandated by the State of Pennsylvania for owners, managers, sellers, servers and ID checkers employed in a licensed establishment. The Pennsylvania RAMP Server/Seller Training program became mandatory in 2016.
Any person who sells or serves alcoholic beverages in the state of Pennsylvania MUST take and pass the Pennsylvania RAMP Server/Seller Training class in order to comply with this law. The program will also help protect workers and their employer from potential legal incidents. Your RAMP Server/Seller Training must be renewed every two (2) years. Persons completing this course will receive 2 certificates! Both the TIPS training certificate and the Pennsylvania RAMP Server/Seller Training certificate.
Please be advised, if you are currently employed at a PA liquor licensed establishment, you will need to enter the license identification number (LID), during registration. The LID number can be found on the establishment’s liquor license. By providing the important number, your establishment will receive credit for your participation!
