STATE SPECIFIC INFORMATION

On August 1, 2001, the MLCC implemented the mandatory server training requirement for licensees obtaining a new on premises license or transferring more than 50% interest in an existing on-premises license. At a minimum, server trained supervisory personnel must be employed during all hours alcoholic beverages are served as outlined in MCL 436.1501(1). 

The pertinent provision of MCL 436.1501(1), being Section 501(1) of the Michigan Liquor Code of 1998, related to this requirement is as follows: 

“…Beginning not later than July 1, 2002 and subject to section 906(2) and (3), the commission shall not issue a new on premises license or transfer more than 50% interest in an existing on premises license unless the applicant or transferee offers proof acceptable to the commission that he or she has employed or has present on the licensed premises, at a minimum, supervisory personnel on each shift and during all hours in which alcoholic liquor is served who have successfully completed a server training program as further described in section 906. The commission may consider an individual enrolled and actively participating in a server training program as having successfully completed the program for such time as the individual is participating. The commission may allow an applicant or a conditionally approved licensee at least 180 days, or more upon a showing of good cause, to meet the minimum training requirements of this subsection. The commission may suspend the license of a conditionally approved licensee for failure to comply with this subsection. The commission may waive the server training requirements of this subsection on the basis of either of the following circumstances: 
(a) The licensee’s responsible operating experience or training.
