Is there any qualification requirements for Personal Licences?
Yes applicants for a Personal Licence will need to hold a licensing qualification which has been accredited by the Secretary of State. The aim of this provision is to ensure that licence holders are aware of licensing law and the wider social responsibilities attached to the sale of alcohol. The syllabus is available visa the DCMS’ website: http://www.culture.gov.uk/global/press_notices/archive_2003/dcms91_2003.htm A list of accredited personal licence qualification providers can be found on the DCMS website using the link below. http://www.culture.gov.uk/alcohol_and_entertainment/licensing_act_2003/personal_licences.
