What is Illinois Liquor Control Commission (ILCC) BASSET Certification?

What is BASSET, you ask? It stands for "Beverage Alcohol Sellers and Servers Education and Training," and it's the Illinois state-approved course that helps handlers of alcoholic beverages learn the responsibilities and dangers involved with their jobs. The purpose of a BASSET course is to ensure that everyone is equipped with the proper tools and skills they will need in order to perform their jobs safely, and prevent dangerous mistakes from occurring – such as serving to a minor or providing alcohol to a habitual or intoxicated customer. Additionally, a BASSET course protects the establishment itself from any liability, should a mistake or hazardous situation happen.

This certification is required for anyone that sells, serves or mixes alcohol in the state of Illinois. This includes anyone that manages or oversees anyone that sells, serves or mixes alcohol.

This training is to help promote legal and responsible sales and service of alcoholic beverages.

What Our Clients Say

Overview of our training

Our program gives people selling and serving alcoholic beverages an overview of alcohol sales, regulations, and techniques for recognizing a minor. Alcohol vendors will better understand how selling alcohol responsibly reduces trouble and improves safety.

The best way for servers and bartenders to avoid facing criminal charges is to take the BASSET alcohol training course. This course provides employees with a thorough and detailed education on how to identify underage customers and how to spot fake IDs whenever they may come across one. It's crucial that the employee be able to determine when a minor is attempting to sneak by—failure to do so could cost them their jobs and could even result in the establishment losing its liquor license. That's why many seller/server establishments will require this training before an employee ever serves alcohol on the job. The state of Illinois now requires that anyone that serves, sells or mixes alcohol in the state must complete an ILCC BASSET approved training course.

It's the Law!

In the state of Illinois, establishments are prohibited from doing any of the following during their Happy Hour:

Serving more than 2 drinks to a single person at a time
Offering drinks at a reduced price (i.e., "2 for 1" specials, or "$1 beers from 4 – 7 p.m.")
Create "unlimited" drink specials during any period of time
Increase the amount of liquor provided in any cocktail
Host any game or contest of any kind in which a prize is given for the consumption of alcohol

It should be noted, however, that any discounted prices on food or products must be offered at that price for the entire day, not just during a 2 to 3-hour window. Therefore, the concept of "Happy Hour" is relegated to just a small part of an entire day's special and isn't really a Happy Hour at all.

Why Are Servers Required To Take An Alcohol Education Class?

Licensees operating establishments where alcoholic beverages are served and consumed on the premises must ensure that each Server of Alcohol employed on the premises is either already certified or completes an Approved Server Training Program within sixty (60) days of the date the server begins employment at the establishment and that each Server of Alcohol maintains that certification throughout his or her employment as a server of alcohol. Club Licensees are required to have no less than one Server of Alcohol, whether employed or a volunteer, on the premises at all times to supervise the service of alcohol to members and the guests of members. Club Licensees are required to ensure that all supervising Servers of Alcohol have completed an Approved Server Training Program before supervising the service of alcohol to members and the guests of members.
