The APLH qualification, formerly NCPLH qualification, is needed to apply for a Personal Licence to sell alcohol and advance your career prospects within the licensed retail sector in England and Wales. The law currently states that anyone wishing to sell or authorise the sale of alcohol must hold a “Personal Licence” issued by their local authority. Once you have gained the APLH qualification you need to apply for your Personal Licence, which we can give you advice and guidance on.
Courses are available nationwide throughout the year.
