Comprehensive Compliance for Austin’s Hospitality Industry
Maintaining legal compliance is a non-negotiable part of working in the Texas food and beverage industry. For Austin food truck operators and venue staff, the Austin Food Handler and TABC Combo provides the necessary legal protection against fines and administrative actions. Our courses are fully accredited under license numbers TX81 and 659-745, ensuring that your certifications are recognized by every local health department and the TABC statewide. This dual-certification approach is perfect for “mixed-use” employees who may serve food one hour and pour drinks the next, providing seamless coverage for your employer.
Streamlined Training for Busy Professionals
We understand that workers in the Austin cocktail and event circuit do not have hours to spend in a physical classroom. Our mobile-friendly platform allows you to complete your training on any device, at your own pace, wherever you have an internet connection. The Austin Food Handler and TABC Combo covers essential safety protocols, including temperature control, cross-contamination prevention, and responsible alcohol service techniques to prevent over-intoxication and underage sales. Upon completion, you can download and print your certificates immediately, allowing you to get back to the floor or the kitchen without any delay in your work schedule.
