The course must be completed online on a schedule that’s convenient to you, however, you are required to complete a proctored test, which means you have to have someone supervise you while you take the test to validate your identity and verify that you complete the test without using any notes or reference materials. Provided you register through us, and are a graduate of the Maryland Bartending Academy the proctor’s fee is included in the cost of the course. If you are not a graduate and or choose to use a different proctor, other than the ones here at the Maryland Bartending Academy, an additional proctor’s fee will be charged.

After you complete the course material online, you will receive a course completion voucher. Next, you must contact the Maryland Bartending Academy and schedule a day and time to take the test. (Sorry no walk-ins) The proctor will give you access to the test, which will take about 10 to 15 minutes to complete. Afterward, you will be issued your certificate for completing the course.
Students also receive an official PSCC wallet size certification card for Maryland Responsible Serving of Alcohol in the mail within 15 days. There is no additional cost for your certification card!
