Scottish Personal Licence Holders

The Scottish Certificate for Personal Licence Holders at SCQF Level 6 has been developed by some of the top subject matter experts in licensing for those involved in the sale of alcohol in both on-sales and off-sales environments. It has been designed to ensure that licence holders comply with current alcohol legislation in Scotland.

These standards are necessary because of changes in the law which makes them part of the licensed trade’s responsibility, i.e., a regulatory requirement, to help keep Scotland safer and healthier.

Key topics include:

– An introduction to licensing
– Responsible operation of licensed premises
– Protecting children and young persons from harm
– The effect of alcohol consumption on customers and your business
– Understanding the 5 licensing objectives
– The key roles and powers of statutory bodies
– The differences between personal, premises and occasional licences

To achieve the SCPLH or SCPLH(R) qualification (required to obtain a Personal Licence), you must sit an exam with a recognised training provider following completion of the e-learning.
