TABC Compliance for Coastal Hospitality Teams

In the Corpus Christi hospitality sector, compliance is the foundation of a successful season. The Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission (TABC) requires anyone involved in the sale or service of alcohol to understand the legalities of preventing underaged drinking and over-intoxication. For beachside venues, where the atmosphere is relaxed but the volume is high, these skills are critical. Our online course (License #659-745) covers all necessary modules, including checking IDs, identifying signs of intoxication, and understanding the “Safe Harbor” act, which can protect employers from administrative action if an employee violates the law.
