Step-by-step Guide to Getting an RSA in Victoria

Are you interested in working in the hospitality industry but need help figuring out where to start? In Victoria, it’s a legal requirement to have a Responsible Service of Alcohol (RSA) certificate to work with alcohol. This certificate ensures that you have the necessary knowledge and skills to handle situations involving alcohol responsibly.

In this video, we’ll take you through a step-by-step guide to obtaining your Victorian RSA certificate.

 

Step 1: Choose a Registered Training Organisation (RTO)

The first step towards obtaining your Victorian RSA certificate is to complete an RSA course from a reliable platform. These RSA VIC courses can be done online or in person at a registered training organisation (RTO) or provider.

Galaxy Training Australia is a registered training organisation that offers the best online RSA VIC course at $21.99 only. Their courses are easy to learn and fun. One thing that makes them stand out is “extended hours support”, including phone support. 

 

Step 2: Enrol in the RSA Course

Once you’ve chosen a provider, enrolling in the course is next. You can complete an online enrolment form or contact the provider directly. With GTA, you can start FREE and pay only when you like the course.

Once your enrolment is confirmed, you’ll be given access to the course material. This material includes information on legal requirements, responsible serving practices, and more.

 

Step 3: Complete the Course to Get the RSA Statement of Attainment

You must complete the course material and pass an assessment to obtain your online Statement of Attainment. The assessment includes multiple-choice questions to test your understanding of the course material.

Once you’ve completed the RSA course online, you’ll receive your RSA Statement of Attainment. 

Now, you need to take VCGLR’s online RSA bridging course at no cost to have your qualification recognised in Victoria. The bridging course is Free, Easy and Short. By completing the course, you will receive a Victorian RSA Certificate, enabling you to work in licensed venues within Victoria. 

 

Your Victorian RSA certificate is valid for three years from the issue date. After three years, you will need to renew your certificate. 

The renewal process is simple; you only need to complete a refresher course. This course is shorter than the initial RSA course and ensures you are up-to-date with all the industry changes.

Getting your RSA in Victoria is a straightforward process. By choosing an approved RTO, enrolling in the course, completing the assessment and renewing your certificate, you can ensure you can confidently work in the hospitality industry. A word of advice: keep your online RSA certification up-to-date. It’s not only a legal requirement, but it also demonstrates to employers that you are committed to providing responsible service of alcohol. We hope this step-by-step guide has been helpful and wish you all the best in your RSA course.
