The bartender training program, called Bar Me Tender, began in October 2021, and ran in 5-week sessions of 2x3 hours per week – a total of 4 consecutive groups started the training in October, November, January, and March. The trainings follow the proven theme structure of the mixer school and covers everything from practical knowledge through finding the potential in the mixer profession to the key facts about alcohol brands. To give the mixers who participated in the program the opportunity to show what they are capable of and to give them a better chance on the job market, Coca-Cola HBC Hungary and the Bacardi Mojito Mixer School organized a cocktail competition to close the first year of the training.
The gap-filling bartender training, worth HUF 100,000 per person continues in early October 2022 and offers another 100 talented people already working in the hospitality sector the opportunity for forward-looking professional education. Participants can learn from top experts, including brand ambassadors from Coca-Cola HBC Hungary's premium spirits portfolio, learn about premium quality drinks and take their knowledge to the next level. The training takes place in monthly sessions, with 25 future bartenders being trained each month from October this year until March 2023. The mixer course is free for participants, with the full cost of the training co-funded by Coca-Cola HBC Hungary and the Bacardi Mojito Mixer School.
