When you log in, before you start the course you will be asked to provide your physical characteristics- this is normal and is printed on your card for identification purposes.

This course provides you with the necessary knowledge and techniques you need to be a responsible seller of alcohol. Specifically, you will learn how to protect yourself and your establishment from liability; how alcohol affects your customers; how to recognize the effects of alcohol on your customers; how to prevent customers from becoming intoxicated; how to intervene when you need to refuse a sale to someone; how to prevent and deal with disturbances; how to accurately check IDs and recognize minors; how to prevent second-party sales; and how to refuse a sale.

The Online MAST training course includes six lessons critical to responsible alcohol serving. At the end of the course, you will be provided with a final exam where you must achieve a passing score of 80% or greater. Once the course is completed, your score will be reported to the Washington State Liquor and Cannabis Board, and your Class 12 or Class 13 MAST Permit will be mailed to you upon course completion. 

You can take breaks during the course and come back to complete the course.
