In NSW, you need a Liquor & Gaming NSW (L&GNSW)-issued RSA Competency Card to legally work as a Responsible Server of Alcohol.
To obtain this credential, you need to complete two steps:
Complete an RSA (NSW) course with an approved training provider like AIFS
Lodge your Interim Certificate in person at a Service NSW centre to apply for your Competency Card
Once you've completed both steps, you'll receive your Interim Certificate, which lets you start working as a Responsible Server of Alcohol in NSW straight away.
Your Interim Certificate lets you work for up to 90 days while your Competency Card is processed. Allow around 5 weeks for your card to arrive by mail - more information can be found here.
