Beer & Wine Training in Houston

Complete beer and wine certification courses at Houston Bartending School — included in your tuition, divided into two comprehensive programs.

The Course

Two Complete Certification Courses

As a bartender, you need to know how to mix fabulous cocktails — but also be expert in beer and wine for patrons who appreciate these beverages. The training is divided into two separate courses.

After completing both courses, you will receive a certification for each — credentials that bar managers are actively seeking.

Houston is America's energy capital — and its executives, engineers, and international visitors create a bar market that demands exceptional service. From the craft cocktail bars of Montrose to the Galleria luxury hotel bars that host global business deals, Houston's bar scene pays serious money for serious bartenders.
