Who needs personal licence training?

Personal licence training and securing a premises licence is a mandatory requirement and authorises individuals who hold a personal licence to carry out licensable activities such as selling alcohol by retail or supply or authorising the sale of alcohol.

Personal Licence holders commonly work in the following types of licensed premises.

  • Pubs
  • Bars & Restaurants
  • Off Licence Stores
  • Temporary Events

How do I get a personal licence?

Upon completion of our Level 2 personal licence training, we also take care of the registration process for your APLH online exam. You don’t even need to call us, we’ll call you!

You will shortly be contacted by an Exams Officer from The Skills Network and they will book your external online examination. The personal licence exam is conducted remotely, with multiple exam slots available so you can choose a time that suits you and works perfectly around any shift patterns or family demands.

For your online APLH exam, you’ll need…

  • A quiet area where you won't be distracted
  • A computer with a webcam facility for invigilation purposes only
  • Some form of personal identification

Once you receive your BIIAB certificate, you can apply for a personal licence with your local council.
