Aims

The Licensing (Scotland) Act 2005 states that all Premises Managers must hold a valid personal licence or alcohol cannot be served. In order for an individual to be granted a personal licence they must have evidence of a licensing qualification such as Certificate for Personal Licence Holders Scotland. City & Guilds and ServeWise have worked closely with the Scottish Government to jointly develop the 7104 Certificates for both On Sales and Off Sales use. The qualifications have been specifically designed to ensure that they enable learners to develop their knowledge of the requirements concerning the new Scottish Government Personal Licence, gain an understanding of the licensing process in Scotland and the roles and responsibilities of individuals and organisations involved in the process. This includes learning the differences between types of licences available in Scotland and the duties and responsibilities of licence holders.

• On-Sales for managers and staff in pubs, clubs, hotels and other licenced premises
