SUBJECT: The purpose of this nonrule policy is to clarify the ATC's position regarding Trainer Programs outlined in IC 7.1-3-1.5-4.5.

SCOPE: Certified trainers may train alcohol servers on the selling, serving, and consumption of alcoholic beverages. IC 7.1-3-1.5-4.8. Certified trainers shall not train individuals who plan to become certified trainers. IC 7.1-3-1.5-4.8.

POLICY: Pursuant to IC 7.1-3-1.5-4.8, the certified trainers may train alcohol servers on the selling, serving, and consumption of alcoholic beverage servers. Although references to trainer programs still exist in Indiana Code, the legislature deleted the authority for trainer programs in IC 7.1-3-1.5-4.8. The note states "[t]he 2008 amendment deleted the (1) designation; deleted the former (2), which read: individuals who plan to become certified trainers; and made a related change.". To ensure consistency and quality of server programs governed by the ATC, trainer programs are disallowed and shall not be sanctioned by the ATC. Only Master Certified Trainers may train individuals who plan to become certified trainers. 905 IAC 1-12.5-1(d).
