Why Do I Need This ?
The Indiana State Excise Police offer statewide public information programs targeted at increasing awareness to the public and the industry regarding alcohol and tobacco sales. State-Certified Third Party Trainers like ZEDFLY, LLC conduct server training programs to educate those who serve alcoholic beverages and/or sell tobacco products. The server training program provides an overview of the criminal, civil and administrative liabilities connected with the sale of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products. Recognizing false or altered identification, refusing service to intoxicated patrons and giving the employee a good working knowledge of all Indiana laws regarding alcohol and tobacco sales is a major part of the Server Training Program.
What will I get when I complete the course?
This course will take about 2 hours to complete. After successful completion of the course and exam, you will receive a Letter Of Completion with the date of the training. This document should be kept by the employee and copies provided to all employers as needed.
If I Am a Volunteer Permit or Temporary Employee Permit Holder, Do I Need This Course ?
Technically, a Volunteer (not paid) who works less than 120 days a year, does not need this course. The Temporary Employee Permit is event specific and by its design can be paid for the event but the event is typically 3-7 days so therefore they also would not be required to take this course. HOWEVER, Since the course offers information on Indiana laws as well as alcohol-related situations, it may still be an important tool to heighten your overall knowledge and awareness.
Acceptable Forms of ID (required at the start of the course):
Any valid driver's license containing a picture, and date of birth, issued by any state or United States Territory. Also, a state issued ID or valid Military identification card is acceptable. You can also provide a valid Passport. NOTE: ALL ID'S MUST BE VALID ,MEANING NOT EXPIRED, AND MUST MATCH THE PERSON TAKING THE COURSE.
