I can't tell if you already have a job bartending or are trying to get one. If 
you are working in as establishement that serves alochol but not as as a 
bartender than going to to a bartending school will probably help you move 
into the job as bartender.I am sure that bartending schools will have a lot to 
offer in the area expanding anyone's knowledge about mixology and the bar 
business in general what you get out of it is going to depend on the school as 
there really is no standard.The U.S. federal government does not allow grants 
for vocational training or veterans benefits to pay for bartending school.Most 
schools will tell you that they have job placement but what that amounts to is 
 giving you a list of opening(probably not current). I asked this question 
here once befor and had no response but - is there anyone out there that got 
placed in a job by a bartending school?

Just my opinion but I think most vocational training schools are mostly 
concerned about getting your money.Dealers schools probably have the highest 
rate of job place and some are even owned by casinos.
