End of licensee training exemption – now required BEFORE lodging application
licensee training requirement for small bar, on premises, restaurant, packaged liquor and producer liquor licences

As of today, most licensees and approved managers will require completion of either the standard, or standard and advanced licensee training before applying for a new licence or licence transfer.
The only licensees and approved managers that do not require this training are those of very low risk licences, such as:
- single or multi-function
- special event or trade fair, with less than 2,000 patrons per day
- public entertainment (cinema) venues
- producer/wholesaler without a drink on premises authorisation
- pop-up event or promotion without a drink on premises authorisation
For everyone else, this is just one of the steps you must take – don’t forget your RSA competency and National Police Check as a minimum.
