Beverage Management Certificate
New Program
Hospitality (130700)
01/15/25
Beverage Management is a dynamic program designed to equip students with the fundamental skills and knowledge needed to excel in entry-level beverage management roles. With a comprehensive curriculum spanning key areas of mixology, mastering the craft of creating a diverse range of cocktails, mocktails, and specialty beverages. Through hands-on practice and guidance from seasoned mixologists, participants will learn techniques for flavor balancing, presentation, and customer engagement, ensuring they can deliver exceptional and safe beverage experiences.
Program Student Completion:
With local high school pathway programs in hospitality as well as business, our estimation is that approximately 50 students will be in pursuit of a Culinary Arts Certificate. Our direct connection with the Tribe and Casino, in addition to the high schools, means we're anticipating approximately 10-20 completers after the first year and a half/two years, but these are likely very conservative estimates. Anticipated industry demand can be seen below:
The long-term projected growth for Bartenders in the Tulare County area from 2020-2030 is an increase of 41.2%. Since the creation of that projection Porterville has seen additional growth with the opening of the Casino and the soon coming event center/hotel
