SITHFAB021 PROVIDE RESPONSIBLE SERVICE OF ALCOHOL

Unit/Course Description

This unit describes the performance outcomes, skills and knowledge required to responsibly sell or serve alcohol.

Responsible practices must be undertaken wherever alcohol is sold or served, including where alcohol samples are served during on-site product tastings. This unit, therefore, applies to any workplace where alcohol is sold or served, including all types of hospitality venues, packaged liquor outlets and wineries, breweries and distilleries.

The unit applies to all levels of sales personnel involved in the sale, service and promotional service of alcohol in licensed premises. Those selling or serving alcohol may include food and beverage attendants; packaged liquor sales persons selling in person, over the phone or online; winery, brewery and distillery cellar door staff; and supplier sales representatives. The unit also applies to security staff who monitor customer behaviour and to the licensee who is ultimately responsible for responsible service of alcohol (RSA) management.

The unit incorporates the knowledge requirements, under state and territory liquor licensing law, for employees engaged in the sale or service of alcohol.

Certification requirements differ across states and territories. In some cases all people involved in the sale, service and promotional service of alcohol in licensed premises must be certified in this unit. This can include the licensee and security staff.

This unit covers the RSA skill and knowledge requirements common to all States and Territories. Some legislative requirements and knowledge will differ across borders. In some cases after completion of this unit, state and territory liquor authorities require candidates to complete a bridging course to address these specific differences.

Those developing training to support this unit must consult the relevant state or territory liquor licensing authority to determine any accreditation arrangements for courses, trainers and assessors.

Multiple choice questions

The course is broken down into small, manageable sections designed to improve your learning. At the end of each section is a multiple-choice quiz. Assessment for this course comprises online quizzes and case studies.

You are required to get all questions in a section before moving to the next section.  You will be given feedback on questions you answered incorrectly.

Written questions

Read the question and type your answer in the box below. These questions draw from all parts of the course.

Video Assessment

The video assessment questions require you to video yourself speaking to a range of customers as you would in the workplace and submitting these videos as part of your assessment.

Why do we ask for this? As part of the national unit of competency, we need to be able to assess your ability to engage with customers and what you would say to them in a variety of scenarios. We are not evaluating your acting skills, we just need to ensure that you can complete the task as you would in the workplace.   

You are required to be 100% visible in each video assessment. We match the person in the video, to the photo ID you upload during the ID verification process. 

To complete the video questions, you need one (1) of the following:

  1. Smartphone with internet access and video camera.
  2. Webcam

 

Record in the LOWEST resolution possible. Detailed instructions of how to use the video software is provided in the course. It’s a breeze!

Students are given three (3) attempts to complete the final assessment and be marked ‘Competent’. If you do not pass your final assessment on your third attempt, you can purchase an additional three attempts to complete your final assessment. The cost to purchase an additional three attempts is $12.

Please also know that trainers are available at any time throughout your course to provide assistance should you need additional guidance and support. 

Same Day Marking is Available
