Training and Qualifications

At this time the only qualification required by the Licensing Act 2003 is the National Certificate for Personal Licence Holders.

There are many other qualifications such as those for Designated Premises Supervisor, Entertainment Licensees, Door Supervisors, Barpersons etc. One or more of these may be specifically required as a condition on a Premises Licence or for career development. They are not, at this stage, a requirement of the Licensing Act 2003.

The National Certificate for Personal Licence Holders is the first step in making an application for a Personal Licence. Courses are held in most major towns by a number of organisations. These usually last one day with an examination taking place at the end of the course.

The cost can vary according to the area and organisation.

A W G Licensing Limited has made arrangements with a local training company, Mannimal, for prospective Personal Licence holders to have priority booking onto their courses.

If you are interested in taking advantage of this arrangement you can contact Mike Catling at Mannimal on 01892 861261, email info@mannimal.co.uk or visit their website at: www.mannimal.co.uk
