The Indiana State Excise Police offer statewide public information programs targeted at increasing awareness to the public and the industry regarding alcohol and tobacco sales. State Excise Officers conduct server training programs to educate those who serve alcoholic beverages and/or sell tobacco products. The server training program provides an overview of the criminal, civil and administrative liabilities connected with the sale of alcoholic beverages and tobacco products. Recognizing false or altered identification, refusing service to intoxicated patrons and giving the employee a good working knowledge of all Indiana laws regarding alcohol and tobacco sales is a major part of the Server Training Program.   

ALL 19 & 20 YR. OLDS MUST ATTEND AN APPROVED SERVER TRAINING PRIOR TO APPLYING FOR A RESTRICTED PERMIT
