Common Questions


We have included a selection of questions that we are often asked.
Click on the questions below to expand the sections.

It is a two-part training programme to become accredited and registered as a responsible person on a liquor licence or as a member of Doorstaff for an on-licence.
The courses below satisfy Part -1- of the two-part training programme – please ensure you book the correct course for your role:
· Responsible person for on-licensed premises
· Responsible person for off-licensed premises
· Responsible person for Club licensed premises
· Manx Award in Door supervision

Part -2- of the process is a one-day classroom course, providing practical application of the law and interactive training for the role.
• Level 2 qualification for Licensed premises operation

If you have a policy of general staff training and wish to cover your own or your company responsibility for due diligence under the law, we have a course designed for general alcohol server training in licenced premises at a very low cost per staff member.
• Licensed Premises Staff

We also have the following compliance training available online
• Fire Safety (supervision/fire marshal level)
• Fire Safety (staff awareness level)
• Food Safety (Level 2)

Our full day classroom based First Aid at Work course (FAAW) is specifically designed for retail and hospitality. If your insurance company or risk assessments require this training, we can offer a competitively priced session with a qualified trainer.
To register for any training, go to the website www.kneale.im

Go the ‘Courses’ and identify the correct training session for your needs and click on the link – it takes you to the information page on the training. Then go to the ‘Book your place’ link at the bottom of the information page, it will take you straight to the booking facility where you can see this training on the schedule.

On booking on and paying, you will get a confirmation booking with details for the training.
One of the advantages of the revised two part system is that it allows interchangeability. For example, if you hold the part -1- Responsible Person (on-licence) and have attended the part -2- classroom, you can upgrade your training qualifications economically and easily by completing a part-1- eLearn session for Doorstaff or Off-licence staff.

If you contact us with proof of passing another part -1- session, we can amend your part -2- certificate to cover the new training as well for a fee of £35.00.
We encourage everyone to take care of the training certificate which is required for any submissions to the Licensing Court or the Police Licencing Unit.

Should you find you require replacement, the cost is £35.00. Please email us for a replacement.
In line with industry standards, the Licensed Premises operations certificate is three (3) years from date of attendance.
Your people want to learn, upskill and develop. Research shows that when people are supported and encouraged to make learning a priority, they’re motivated and engaged with their jobs.

But there are other reasons – breach of Food Hygiene requirements can have serious and potentially fatal outcomes for customers, business operators and the staff members involved.

Similar outcomes apply to breach of Fire regulations or ignorance on what to do in an emergency.

With the right tools in place, it’s easy to develop a culture of continuous learning, keeping your people productive and happy. Especially, when learning is linked to performance.
