Introduction

If you're going to work at a licensed premises (a place that sells alcohol), you must complete training in the Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA). If you don't have proof that you've completed the RSA training required for working in a licensed premises, you could be fined.

Training providers

You need to be trained by an approved training provider.

Use the Liquor & Gaming NSW website to find an approved training provider

Applying for an RSA card

Once you complete the training, you need to apply for an RSA competency card if you don't already have one.

If you hold a current interstate RSA certification you may be able to work temporarily in NSW. For information or to see if you're eligible, visit Liquor & Gaming NSW Responsible Service of Alcohol.
