ServSafe Alcohol®, Fundamentals of Responsible Alcohol Service

The ServSafe Alcohol® seminar is conducted semi-annually by a ServSafe Alcohol® Instructor certified by the National Restaurant Association Educational Foundation.  Upon the conclusion of the seminar, students are assessed on their knowledge of the learning outcomes by taking the ServSafe Alcohol® Primary Examination.

The alcohol awareness seminar is part of a student’s co-curricular programming for professional development training (one of the six pillars of our leadership development program) where the following learning outcomes are realized by utilizing three of our four leadership learning opportunities – leadership education, leadership training, and leadership development.

By participating in a certified alcohol awareness program, the students heighten their self awareness giving each student an increased capability to manage a variety of social situations.  For student leaders, this compliments other programs that place them in an environment that encourages self-regulation and accountability.

Learning Outcomes:

  • Identify criminal and civil liabilities as related to the sale and service of alcohol.
  • Identify alcohol’s path through the body.
  • Identify the liver’s role in breaking down alcohol in the body.
  • Identify factors that affect a peer’s blood alcohol content (BAC).
  • Identify drinks that contain the same amount of alcohol.
  • Identify how to count drinks accurately.
  • Identify the physical and behavioral signs of intoxication.
  • Identify methods for preventing peers from becoming intoxicated.
  • Identify the proper methods of checking identification.
  • Identify the proper methods for handling difficult situations.
