We've helped to shape the industry and its' regulations for the alternative delivery of alcohol safety training and continue to lead the way.
How long does the Course take?
Your online TABC certification will take 3 hours and 20 minutes to complete. It must be completed in one 6-hour setting . You may take a break anytime you wish throughout the 6-hour period, however, TABC regulations require online courses to be completed within one 6-hour setting. There is a final exam that you must score 70% to pass. You will have 2 attempts to pass the final exam and if you don't, you'll have to take the course over again (free of charge), but we think you'll do just fine. Don't bother writing all of this down, we'll remind you about all the important fine print and details when you enroll and begin your course.
