Learn Behind an Actual Bar From our Qualified Instructors
Our Riverside Bartending School is unique in the fact that we always have a full time instructor to work with you when you show up. Our program takes 80 – 100 hours to complete but you may build your hours any time we are open. Some students finish in 10 days and others take 5 weeks.
You are allowed to come and go as you please for the rest of your life!!! This accomplishes two things: First, as a consumer it tells the student that we are dedicated to teaching you to be fast, professional, and a proficient bartender. Second, When you graduate you are going to have the most extensive education available in the industry.

Some Students may want to get through the program in 10 or 12 days. No problem, we can help!!!
However, if a student is a single mother and working full time, Riverside Bartending School is dedicated to helping. The single mother may have time constraints such as; a sick child, no sitter for the night, doctors appointments, and other unforeseeable issues. THAT’S OK!!!! We are here to help, she can come in any time she wants to build her hours.
Here’s another example, let’s say someone has recently been laid-off. Obviously, that person is going to want to go through the program as quickly as possible to take advantage of job placement assistance. That person may come in for 10 days 10 hours a day and with our full time staff we can help him accomplish that goal for him. High-volume bartending in 10 days!!!
