TIPS-TRAINING FOR INTERVENTION PROCEDURES
TIPS is a skills-based training program designed to prevent intoxication, underage drinking and drunk driving. TIPS provides your employees with the knowledge and confidence they need to recognize potential alcohol related problems and how to effectively intervene to prevent alcohol tragedies. When you serve or sell alcohol at a bar, restaurant, hotel, ballpark concession or university, you risk lawsuits if you over serve, risk lives if you serve a drunk driver and risk your livelihood if you sell to a minor.
All participants are guaranteed to leave TIPS training prepared to:
Spot underage drinkers and prevent sales to minors
- Recognize signs of intoxication
Intervene quickly and assuredly in potential problem situations
Understand the difference between people enjoying themselves and those getting into trouble with alcohol
Handle alcohol-related situations with greater confidence
Use proven strategies to prevent alcohol-related problems
