About this course

What the Alcohol Personal Licence Holder course covers

You take Alcohol Personal Licence Holder online, at your own pace, without booking a place on anything. Budget roughly 90 minutes for the 9 modules, less if the subject is already familiar. You are not racing an expiry date, which is the difference between finishing a course and abandoning it.

What it covers: Introduction, Premises Licences, Personal Licences and Club Premises Certificates and Dealing with Licensing Authorities. Another 5 modules follow, and the Modules tab lists every one of them.

You will get more out of it if the subject is already part of your week. We list 98 Compliance & Risk courses, of which 46 sit at Intermediate. Its study time is about mid-range for the subject. CPD accreditation is included, so the training evidences itself for an appraisal or an inspection.

The honest caveats: It is not an awareness course: if the subject is completely new to you, something introductory will be better value.

Buyer guide

Is this the right course for you?

Best fit

Alcohol Personal Licence Holder is a sensible shortlist choice when you want a structured route through the published syllabus rather than a general overview of the whole subject. Its 9-module plan starts with Introduction and Premises Licences, which gives you a clear indication of the assumed starting point. That shape is likely to be most useful for managers, supervisors and the person who ends up owning compliance whose training need matches those topics. It is a weaker fit if you only need one isolated skill, or if an employer has specified a different standard, awarding body or practical assessment. Before buying, compare that requirement with the final modules on Children and 18's and Responsibility in Alcohol Retailing as well as the course title.

How to use the syllabus

Treat the module list as a study plan, not just a contents page. Begin with Introduction and Premises Licences and note any terms or processes you need to revisit. Around the middle, Types of Businesses Selling Alcohol acts as a useful checkpoint: if you can explain that material without looking back, move on; if not, repeat the preceding section before adding more. The later work on Children and 18's and Responsibility in Alcohol Retailing is where you can test whether the earlier ideas connect. After each block, write a short example from your own work or a realistic scenario. That simple retrieval step makes self-paced learning more useful than clicking straight through to completion.

Check before enrolling

The listed study time is 90 minutes; reserve more time if the subject is new to you or you plan to make detailed notes. No fixed access period is stated in the validated course facts; ask us before enrolling if a deadline matters to your plans. A downloadable or printable completion certificate is described, but it records course completion rather than replacing a regulated qualification. The course carries a CPD accreditation reference; still check that your employer or professional body accepts this exact course for the purpose you have in mind.

Full course details from the training provider

Alcohol Personal Licence Holder Online Course

CPD & Laser Awards Approved

The alcohol licensing laws of the United Kingdom regulate the sale and consumption of alcohol. Any organisation, business or individual who wishes to sell alcohol must have a licence. This is obtained from a Licensing Authority.

The three main types of licence are covered, including applications, conditions, representations, and reviews. 

You’ll learn about the legal duties of personal licence holders, and how to deal with Licensing Authorities, along with information relating to objections, fees and hearings.

The course will also discuss issues surrounding Temporary Event Notices, and mandatory conditions, which are compulsory for all licensed premises.

It’ll also look in detail at the major issue of age verification – and you’ll learn about the licensing laws and best practices as they apply to children and under 18s.

Finally, it outlines the responsibilities involved in alcohol retailing including drinking guidelines and how to avoid and reduce conflict.
