Learn bartending at Professional Bartending Schools of America. We have 31 state-licensed bartending schools nationwide. Our schools trained over 8,000 bartenders in 2004. We view bartending as a professional career and only offer hands-on training behind a fully-equipped bars in a permanent school facility.
We don't believe bartending is a trade that can be learned by video, on-line school or at home sitting on your couch! We work hard to fully prepare our graduates for a career in bartending, whether it be at a nice local neighborhood bar or the fanciest hotel or nightclub in town. Their success is our school reputation!
Bartending is a fun and exciting career that appeals to all ages. Our student base is made us of those looking to better their career, college students wanting part-time fun work, and the professional career worker who wants to supplement their income, or just get out and have some fun.
We take great pride in our bartending schools and staff. We show hundreds of actual pictures on this site of our staff, students, classrooms and graduates. Check out other bartending school websites and you will notice very few actual pictures of their facilities, staff or graduates. We believe a picture is worth a thousand words.
In addition, the President of our company, Roger Oldham, is a four-time winner of the best bartender in Ohio contest, and has twice finished in the top ten in the world at Disney's "Quest for the Best Bartender in the World" contest held each year in Orlando, Florida.
Many bartending schools make claims, but we back it up with our proven background in the food and beverage industry.
