Professional Bartending Schools of America

Have you heard the commercial "Hey bartender! What did you learn in school?" Yes, that's us. We've been training and placing bartenders in and around San Antonio for over 14 years. The Professional Bartending School has come a long way since Austin Hwy. We changed locations once, remodeled twice, and are currently in the process of opening a location in Austin. Our school is locally owned and operated by the same owners since 1999. Our Job Placement Director has been with us since 2000 and totally overhauled the Job Placement assistance program.

Bartending Training

When you walk into our school, you would think that you are in a real bar! Our learning facility is unique to San Antonio; there's no other like it! It's very spacious with 10 fully operational bar stations, dual speed racks, three and four compartment sinks, several bottle racks, and much more.

All classes are taught behind the fully equipped bars, with exceptional detail to each lesson. Our methods are proven to provide you with the best professional bartending skills such as: mixology, product knowledge, presentation and etiquette, customer service tips, and job searching strategies.

There are no more than 10 students per class, which allows each student to work at their "own" bar station. The program is designed to be hands-on training, with each student working behind the bar for at least three hours per day with one hour of instruction. We have three licensed instructors which provides the student to teacher ratio in approximation of 3:1. This ratio allows for more individual attention than any other school in this area.
