I’ve heard I might have to pass a licensing exam before I can get a personal licence, is that right?
A A personal licence is similar in concept to a driving licence. A driving licence authorises you to drive motor vehicles – you only get it when you pass a test to show you have reached a certain standard. A personal licence will indicate your suitability to sell alcohol or authorise others to sell alcohol and you will only qualify for it if you have a specified licensing qualification. The Government has published a syllabus for the personal licence qualification which sets out what the course should contain (similar to the content of the BII) and can be viewed on the Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) website – (http://www.culture.gov.uk/ – external link).
