Important:

To meet the standards set forth by the Louisiana Office of Alcohol and Tobacco Control (ATC), students are required to:

• Provide a valid U.S.-issued form of identification (such as a driver's license, state ID, Social Security card, or work authorization document). Foreign-issued IDs, including passports, are not accepted by the ATC.

• Submit a valid residential address when completing training on our platform. Our system will verify the address upon completion to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulatory requirements.

If the address provided by the student is found to be invalid or non-compliant, you will be promptly notified via email regarding the discrepancy. You will then have 24 hours from the time of notification to provide a valid residential address (including an apartment number if applicable).

Failure to update the address or provide a valid U.S. ID within the specified timeframe may result in the reporting of training as failed to the ATC, thereby impacting your ability to obtain a Bar Card. Additionally, if a valid update is received after the 24-hour deadline—requiring us to resubmit a new roster—an administrative fee will apply.
