Inn-Dispensable provides accredited Personal Licence Training to both individuals and corporate businesses. Our accredited qualification is accepted by all councils in England and Wales.

The accredited Scottish Certificate for Personal Licence Holders (SCPLH) is accepted by all Licensing Boards. This qualification is an online course, where you can study and take the exam at home or in a private workspace, if working.

The personal licence course enables people to acquire the APLH (Award for Personal Licence Holders) qualification, so they may apply to the council to obtain their Personal Licence.

A personal licence allows an individual to sell or authorise the sale of alcohol at a premises that has a valid Premises Licence.

The Law currently states that anyone wishing to sell or authorise the sale of alcohol must hold a ‘Personal Licence’ issued by their local authority. It is a mandatory requirement that anyone requiring this must have gained an ‘Award for Personal Licence Holders’ (APLH) qualification before applying to sell alcohol.

Inn-Dispensable also provides a Personal Licence Application Service.

You must have a Personal Licence:

• to sell or supply alcohol at a licensed premises.
• if you are the designated premises supervisor (DPS) at a licensed premises.
  (A designated premises supervisor (DPS) is the person who has day-to-day responsibility for the running of the business.)

Personal Licences do not expire unless they are surrendered, suspended or revoked.

We provide a range of other courses for the retail industry.

Inn-Dispensable offers three different ways to enable customers to obtain this certified licence qualification.

1. Classroom Courses
   We hold classroom courses across England and Wales. The courses can be booked online via our website or by calling the office. The days training is followed by the exam. The pass rate is 28 out of 40.
2. Corporate Training
   We can come to you and run the course for your team at your premies– as long as there is a minimum of 6 people.
3. E-Learning
   
Self-study in your own time by accessing our online APLH course through our web site. Once you have completed all seven modules you sit an online exam. You will require a computer with front facing camera and a smart phone.

Once you have your Personal Licence from the council you can sell alcohol at a premises with a Premises Licence or authorise other people, such as other team members, to sell alcohol. But you must also ensure they are adequately trained.

We offer three e-learning courses for this purpose:

• Age Verification
• Responsible alcohol Retailing – Award for Licensed Premises Staff (ALPS)
• Award in Underage Sales Prevention

These courses demonstrate a suitable level of training has been achieved. The courses can be accessed online, anywhere, anytime, and on any device – laptop, mobile, tablet or desktop. There is unlimited access to the course modules, so knowledge may be refreshed.
