Bartending & Alcohol Service in New York

New York State Liquor Authority sets the license rules for businesses that sell alcohol. Whether an employee needs extra server training depends on the license and the job. Lime course completion does not replace that requirement.

Lime course completion is separate from any state-mandated server training, permits, or licenses. Always verify current rules with the official authority.
