VA\u00ae (The Operational Alcohol Standards Training of Virginia) and BREW VA\u2122 (focusing on alcohol training specific to the brewery industry) and WINE VA\u2122 (focusing on alcohol training specific to a winery and tastings). Our training programs were developed by retired ABC Special Agents and are updated, annually, with new regulations changes and the most up-to-date information. All three courses (both online and our on-site courses) are designed and taught by former and retired Virginia ABC Special Agents. These consultants have real knowledge and understanding how to keep a business compliant. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Why is it important to repeat our training, annually? <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>All training covers current laws &amp; specifics that affect your servers.<\/li><li>Our training was the first seller\/server training out there (created in 2011 by a former ABC agent), and we didn\u2019t just package it and start selling it. This training is a living document that is constantly updated with the newest laws and any changes that affect our clients.<\/li><li>Each training course has an annual expiration \u2013 unlike other courses from other training organizations, because we know that laws and regulations change. VA ABC Authority  regulations change, every year, and we want you to stay compliant \u2013 not risk fines because you were unaware of a change.\u00a0 <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Register and start taking either course, immediately: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>T.O.A.S.T VA\u00ae ($29.95 online price) <\/li><li>BREW VA\u2122 ($39.95 online price) <\/li><li>WINE VA\u2122 ($39.95 online price) <\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><em><em>*Disclaimer: The information provided on this website does not, and is not intended to, constitute legal advice; instead, all information, content, and materials available on this site are for general informational purposes only.&nbsp; Information on this website may not constitute the most up-to-date legal or other information.&nbsp; This website contains links to other third-party websites.&nbsp; Such links are only for the convenience of the reader, user, or browser; ABC Consulting VA, LLC does not recommend or endorse the contents of the third-party sites.
