The Program
Each of our graduates is eligible to use our nationwide job placement assistance program. We currently have 36 PBSA campuses and have contracted with over 50 additional campuses to mutually help each other's graduates.
We have signed, written contracts for placement services at these additional campuses and monitor them for their results. We feel we have the best schools for placement in the industry.
Any Chicago graduate may call our job placement director if they are considering relocating. Once relocated, our director will call the new school and set up your job placement appointment.
Simply report to the new campus with your PBSA diploma — all of that city's job openings are available to you at no charge. The new school will treat you like one of their own.
Chicago is the birthplace of some of America's most influential bar culture — from the jazz-club cocktails of the 1920s to the craft bartending revolution that transformed River North and Logan Square into destinations for national cocktail tourists.
