How Pennsylvania RAMP Training Works for Bartenders

You can complete your RAMP Server/Seller training from home, at the bar before shift, or anywhere you have internet access. Log in from your phone, tablet, or laptop.

  1. Create your LIQUORexam.com account. Use an email address you can access even if you change jobs. This is how you will log in and receive your certificate.
  2. Enroll in the RAMP Server/Seller course. Go to the Pennsylvania RAMP Server/Seller Training page and enroll. If your bar or restaurant gave you an access code, you can apply it during checkout.
  3. Complete the online lessons at your pace. The course is broken into short sections that fit around a bartender’s schedule. You can pause, log out, and come back later — your progress is saved.
  4. Pass the final exam. At the end of the course, you will take a multiple-choice exam based on what you just covered. The number of questions and passing score are clearly shown before you begin.
  5. Download and save your certificate. Once you pass, you can instantly download a PDF certificate and send a copy to your manager or keep it on file for your next job.
Bartender tip: Save your certificate to cloud storage or email it to yourself so you always have quick access when a new bar asks for proof of training.
