• What is the difference between CRAFT Training CO - Alcohol RVT and ServSafe Alcohol?

          The State of Colorado Liquor Enforcement Division (LED) no longer recognizes any of the national Alcohol Certification Programs, such as ServSafe Alcohol and/or TIPs. The LED only approves individual Trainers and their unique programs.  An approved RVT is only necessary if you need to meet the State's guidelines for Training.

​

               * If you need a State Approved Alcohol Certification, you take:

                 Colorado Craft CO - Alcohol RVT

​

               * If you DO NOT need a State Approved Alcohol Certification, you take:

                  Either Colorado Craft CO - Alcohol RVT OR ServSafe Alcohol
