The RSA certificate is obtainable upon successful completion of an RSA teaching course. Registered Training Organisations (RTOs) present the study course on the internet or in man or woman. RTOs are found throughout the nation and are accredited to deliver the training in various states and territories by the state liquor authorities.

Each state and territory has its very own liquor authority, so the RSA requirements can vary depending on which state or territory you are doing work or living in. The nationally recognised program Provide Responsible Service of Alcohol (SITHFAB009A) is what RTOs are accredited to supply.

Nonetheless, some states and territories, the ACT, NSW, Victoria, Tasmania and Queensland, demand an RTO be accredited by their liquor authority ensuring the organisation can provide an RSA certificate for sucessful completion of The Responsible Service Of Alcohol Training course (SITHFAB009A).

Meanwhile in WA, NT, and SA the unit of competency, attained in any state or territory, is an RSA qualification.

In SA the unit of competency, wherever obtained, is part of the State’s application procedure to turn out to be an Approved Responsible Person. Every state and territory liquor authority provides a record of RTOs that they have accredited to provide RSA teaching appropriate to their area on-line.

This info is also offered at the Federal Government’s National Training Information Service (NTIS), an on-line teaching register available to the public.

The RSA certificate teaches employees:

· How to responsibly provide alcohol

· How to responsibly sell alcohol

· How to provide responsible usage of alcohol

· How to aid a person impaired by alcohol excessive consumption

· When it’s proper to refuse a individual services

The RSA certificate is awarded on the effective completion of this course and is more than a license to operate behind a bar. Capabilities learnt for the duration of the RSA coaching are crucial resources of the trade and instruct very best practice. Many state and territory liquor authorities have announced their introduction of mandatory RSA courses to encourage a protected perspective towards alcohol in communities.
