Working together to ensure the responsible service, sale, and consumption of alcohol.
Training for Intervention Procedures (TiPS) is the global leader in education and training for the responsible service, sale, and consumption of alcohol.
The National Drug Council (NDC) would like to applaud both Peanuts Red Bay and Rubis Seven Mile Beach and their management teams for being forward thinkers. The staff of both companies has completed a three-year certification programme designed to prevent intoxication, underage drinking, and drunk driving by enhancing the fundamental “people skills” of servers, sellers and consumers of alcohol.
“We are delighted that both of these companies have taken the opportunity for training and equipping their employees with the skills necessary to be responsible servers in our communities. The National Drug Council’s mandate directs us to advise on law reform relating to the misuse of drugs and we will continue to advocate for legislation to be put in place that will require all persons who sell and serve alcohol to be trained and certified; as well as review the policies which are currently in place. Until then, we will continue to offer support to those who are interested in strengthening their organisations and businesses in whatever ways possible. Being a facilitator of TiPS places us alongside countries that recognise the importance and see the value of server training in the alcohol industry”, stated Joan West-Dacres, Director of the NDC.
The National Drug Council provides training for:
- TiPS for On-Premise
For servers at Restaurants, bars, hotels, in-store tastings, or other establishments where
alcohol is consumed on the premises. - TiPS for Off-Premise
The sale of alcohol at grocery stores, liquor stores, convenience stores and package stores. - TiPS Concessions
For environments such as stadiums, arenas, theaters, concert halls, fairs, amusement parks
and festivals. - TiPS for the University
Tailored for students at universities and colleges. - TiPS for Seniors
This programme focuses on the special challenges alcohol consumption can pose for the
elderly.
Public safety is a national responsibility, and collectively we can ensure that education and strategies are available. All TiPS certification programmes are currently voluntary and offered tointerested parties. Let’s work together to ensure public safety and the responsible service, sale, and consumption of alcohol.
The NDC is dedicated to providing resources and training for the responsible sale and service of alcohol.
