Tucson Bartending Academy

"This certification is a waste of time. You will want your money back. The certificate does not help you get a job and ever bar disregarded it when mentioned."

"Just finished the 2-week course. I learned a lot. Instructor was wonderful. Highly recommend to others if you want to learn something new or be a casual or professional bartender."

"Excellent experience. Alot of information in a short time. Fun and challenging, be sure to take advantage of extra practice hours. Teacher and other students were fun as well. Highly recommend!"

"Not the best place to go they give you a cheap certificate. Way over priced 525 is not exactly worth it when you have to turn around and pay another 35 for your liquor license. You can definitely tell the place is just wanting money. I suggest going online and paying the $70 for the videos and finding a place that let's you take the certification class and do it that way.The instructor would not change the liquor bottles and when we had to refill them it would stink up the room. One instructors purposely tried to fail me telling me the drinks I was making were wrong when they were not. If you fail the written test they humiliate you by pulling you in the office then telling you, you have to leave in front of everyone there are so many other ways of doing it instead of embarrassing people. The jobs that they post on the board are old they kept the same jobs up for months, and when they finally did change the job posting those places were no longer hiring. DONT WAIST YOUR MONEY! And yes I did pass the first time.if you have a full time job and are thinking of doing this I suggest you don't do it because they cram so much in your head and expect you to come in and practice. If you are a young kid and dont have responsibility then maybe. But this place is a rip off and I would not recommend this place to anyone Julia James Julia James"

"Fantastic place to go for training. The course is very vigorous, and covers an incredibly large range of things in a short time, while assisting with memorization. They also have job placement assistance, which is something almost no bartending schools offer. I went to increase my professional cocktail knowledge, and began getting job offers from places before I even graduated due to the certification and knowledge I had acquired."
