Texas Compliance and Legal Requirements

Under the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Code, having a certified staff provides “Safe Harbor” protection for business owners. This means that if an employee illegally serves alcohol but is TABC certified and the employer meets specific criteria, the employer’s liquor license may be protected from administrative action. This regulatory framework makes TABC Certification Online an essential investment for both the employee’s career and the employer’s business security. Our course is strictly audited to ensure it meets all state standards, and upon passing the final exam, your record is automatically reported to the TABC database.
