RSA, RCG, Courses – The Crown and Anchor Hotel Newcastle

The Crown and Anchor Hotel 

CNR Hunter and Perkins St, Newcastle

Courses available at this venue.

Are you looking to break into the entertainment and hospitality industry?

Having the RSA and RCG licences will help you break into these industries as these are your minimum legal requirements to work in and around alcohol and gaming.

Both of these courses are held at the ‘The Crown and Anchor Hotel 

Completing the practical Bar Skills course gives you the confidence to work behind the bar so you have some skills and are job ready.  The Kent Hotel is one of our favourite venues.

BarMax have been holding the industry recognised RSA courses and RCG courses in the Newcastle Hunter region for over 20 years.

You can view all dates and times on our calendar (See below).
