As The Demand for Certified Bartenders and Mixologist Are On The Rise, So Are Their Salaries

Denver, USA – October 16, 2015 /MarketersMedia/ —

It’s no secret that nearly anyone can become a bartender, but that doesn’t make every bartender a good one. Some bartenders provide a cocktail while others provide an experience. A customer receiving a beverage from a Buffalo Wild Wings isn’t going to have the same experience as a customer receiving a handcrafted cocktail from a certified mixologist.

Since 2012, the salaries and employment rates for bartenders have begun to rise. The employment rate for bartenders is projected to rise 12% by the year 2020. The estimated results are higher turnover rates and heavy competition due to the supply of bartenders interested in earning tips at popular venues. The demand may also rise it’s standard due to the fact that more experienced and educated bartenders will be available.

Many don’t know that most bartenders don’t start off their career as a bartender. Its more likely that a server, bar back, or buser will work their way up to bartending in order to understand the territory that come along with the position. Most all employers are seeking applicants that are heavily experienced so that minimal training is needed since bartending, as a skill is universally known. Many don’t know that they can bypass the superiority system by taking an inexpensive bartending course.

Bartenders often work odd hours, but in return typically have more flexible work schedules. Bartenders work in the entertainment industry, which makes their performance and expertise of high value to their customer. Most bartenders seek to work in venues that generate large audiences and high revenue because it results in higher tips. These popular venues are more competitive and seek higher qualified bartenders due to the applicant competition.

“Bartenders are very hardworkers and deserve to be rewarded for their services. Many learn from experience, but many also receive a bartending education, which gives them a leg up on the competition,” says Ron Skaggs of Denver Bartending and Casino College. Skaggs goes on the say, “It’s important that bartenders receive the utmost profit from their services because unfortunately, there are a lot underpaid bartenders in the world.”

The Denver Bartending and Casino College offers a mixology certification course that provides all aspects of bartending. The program is offered in weekly increments and on weekends in order to cater to their students’ preferences. Besides the basics, the course offers everything from health department regulations and legal aspects to speed drills and interviewing procedures.

Whether any one is newly entering the field, or wants to improve their skills, a bartending course is a great way to quickly gain the knowledge and skill set. With the employment rate on the rise, a mixology certification course is well worth the investment.
