These are the steps we recommend following to become RBS certified, however, please note that Step #1 and Step #2 are completely interchangeable.

Step #1:  Purchase the course.

Begin this step by signing up for our new, easy online course! Our course saves your progress as you go so you can complete lessons and quizzes at your own pace. Since RBS Certification is new to Californians, we like to explain the process a little before sending students over the ABC's online portal.

Step #2: Register with the ABC.

Go to the ABC's online portal and select "LOG IN/REGISTER" in the top righthand corner. If you don't already have an account with the ABC, you will need to create a new one. Once logged into your account, select "Server" to complete and pay $3 for your Server Application. This process takes about five minutes. After you submit the application, you will be provided with a Server ID Number. Save this number as you will need it for the next step.

Step #3: Complete the course.

Return to the course and provide Craft Serving with your Server ID Number. Immediately after you complete the course, we will send your Server ID Number to the ABC. After the ABC matches our submission to the record they have for you, they will send you an email letting you know you have been granted access to take the final exam. Please allow the ABC up to 2 hours to complete this process.

Step #4: Pass the ABC's exam.

After receiving access to the final exam, you have 30 days to pass it. To do this, log on to the ABC's online portal and select "Take Exam." You will need to get a score of 70% or higher to pass the exam. Immediately after passing the exam, your certification status within the portal will change from "Not Certified" to "Certified."

The short answer is no.

There are multiple steps to getting RBS certified. The previous FAQ question explains all the steps in detail, but to boil it down, after you finish taking the course from us, you will need to go to the ABC's online portal to take the final exam.

We don't make the rules, we just follow them. But we do try to do a good job of explaining the process! 😃

The ABC's final exam consists of 50 randomly generated questions. You must score 70% or higher to pass; this equates to 35 correct answers out of 50.

The exam is an open note, open-book test with no time limit. You can also leave and return to the exam as many times as needed. That means, if you run into a tricky question, just head back to our course and look for the answer.

In order to help ensure students pass the final exam, Craft Serving's course content was written and developed with the ABC's final exam questions in mind. Here are a couple of hot tips! 😉

1. Our course teaches to the final exam as much as possible and oftentimes, bolded sections pertain to information that will be covered in the exam.
2. Craft Serving provides all its students with a free Practice Test. The questions on the practice test are very similar to the questions on the ABC's exam, so it's a great way to prepare for the final exam.

The term "RBS Certification" can be a bit misleading. After you pass the final exam, you will not be provided with an actual certificate that you can download or print off, but rather what the ABC refers to as a "digital" certificate.

In other words, after you pass the exam, your certification status within the ABC's online portal changes from "Not Certified" to "Certified" and it is tracked using your unique Número de identificación del servidor. The ABC and your employer may request this number to look up and verify that your certification is still valid using their own accounts within the portal.

The good news is, since your RBS Certification is housed digitally within the ABC's online portal, you will never need to worry about paying extra to replace a physical lost or stolen certificate! This happens quite a bit to servers who live in states that issue/mail physical certificates and permits.
