Well it is not a bad idea. You should check and verify if they provide job placement to help make the cost worthwhile. Otherwise self-study and on the job training is a better way to go. If you want to make a good leaving without growing old behind a bar earn a college degree in Hospitality %26amp; Beverage Management. Any and all training/education, if marketed well by yourself, is always helpful.I was wanting to become a bartender and i was wondering if it is a good idea to go to bartending school or not?
It looks good on a resume and if you can get a bartending job while still learning, you get the best of both worlds. They should not only teach you to mix drinks, but how to interact with customers and how to deal with drunks. Good luck!I was wanting to become a bartender and i was wondering if it is a good idea to go to bartending school or not?
Before you go to bartending school, I suggest you read "So Ya Wanna Be A Bartender". It gives you a quick 30 page review of what they teach you in bartending school in 3 weeks. The best part is, it's free.AND it has over 100 mixed drink recipes and ideas for landing that first bar-job.I was wanting to become a bartender and i was wondering if it is a good idea to go to bartending school or not?
I can't recommend against bartending school, but my best advice is to visit lots of good bars and talk with and observe experienced bartenders. Then apply for any and all bartending jobs until you get one. If the bar has server positions available instead try that for a while to get your foot in the door.
