Certification

Beer & Wine Training in Miami

Complete beer and wine certification courses at Professional Bartending School of Miami, divided into two comprehensive programs.

The Course

Two Complete Certification Courses

As a bartender, you need to know how to mix fabulous cocktails — but also be expert in beer and wine for patrons who appreciate these beverages. The training is divided into two separate courses.

After completing both courses, you will receive a certification for each — credentials that bar managers are actively seeking.

Miami is one of the most competitive — and rewarding — bartending markets in the world. From the luxury mega-clubs of South Beach to the intimate craft cocktail bars of Wynwood and the five-star hotel bars of Brickell, employers here expect more than someone who can pour a beer.

What You Learn

Exploration of wine and how it is made, grape varietals and food pairing, wine regions, and the proper serving — storage, bottle presentation, opening, and the pour.
