    SABMiller Scholars Programme

    The Scholars Programme is part of SABMiller’s global commitment to raising standards in the drinks industry in countries where they operate.

    Since 2009, the Scholars programme has funded training for almost 3,000 people from small and independent (non-chain) businesses across the UK. Everyone who passes the examination receives an Ofqual-regulated qualification: the BIIAB Level 1 Award in Responsible Alcohol Retailing (ARAR). This is a nationally accredited, life-long, portable qualification.

    Christine Thompson, Government Affairs Manager at SABMiller, said “The Scholars Programme is an important part of our approach to discouraging irresponsible drinking in the UK, because it gives people who sell alcohol in bars and shops the knowledge and the strategies they need to prevent under-age sales and identify the signs of drunkenness and other forms of intoxication. By intervening before an illegal sale of alcohol takes place, bar and counter staff can prevent irresponsible and harmful drinking.”
