Dear Richard:

As you know, I recently completed the two-week bartenders training course at Midwest. I wanted to write you a note outlining my total satisfaction with this program. Not only did the school meet my expectations, but it exceeded them in virtually every category.

The system employed in transferring knowledge to the student is both efficient and comprehensive. A considerable amount of information was transferred, and once transferred, retained. The hands-on training through instructor Kyle H. was both informative and frankly a lot of fun, too. The learning retention methods used were very unique as well as effective. You are to be congratulated on establishing a learning/ training system that accomplishes so much in a relatively short time frame.

I may have mentioned that I have several years experience in teaching at Purdue as well as a number of years as a corporate trainer. The Midwest system is outstanding.

Needless to say, I am looking forward to a full-time position in my new profession in the near future. I'm sure with the training provided me and the placement service offered by Midwest, it will not take long to achieve this.

Warmest regards,

Del S.

Dear Richard and Midwest Students:

At the beginning of this year, I decided that I wanted to earn extra money as a bartender. However, my knowledge of alcohol and mixing drinks was limited, at best. I attended the Midwest Bartenders School to increase my knowledge and have a safe environment to practice my new skills.

Having graduated from Midwest in February, I have had many fun bartending opportunities. I have had the privilege to bartend at a variety of prestigious events, such as the Kentucky Derby, the Indianapolis 500 and Brickyard 400, the Governor's Dinner and the Marine's Black and White Ball and even represented the school at the Costco Warehouse Job Fair.

Midwest Bartenders School job placement program is fantastic! I was hired as a bartender at the Ritz Charles catering company in Carmel approximately one week after completing the bartending program. At the Ritz-Charles, I had the honor of being one of four bartenders chosen to bartend at the U.S. Open hosted in Chicago, Illinois. Currently, I am bartending at Buffalo Wild Wings in Castleton where I am able to work more steady hours and earn plenty of extra money while completing my Master's degree.

Though I have been bartending for less than one year, my knowledge of mixed drinks gained at MBS surpasses some of my coworkers who have been bartending for more than five years. The Midwest Bartenders School has been a great asset and provided me with a job that is anything but boring.

Sincerely,

Heather M. R.

Richard,

I am writing today first to thank you and your staff for the wonderful learning environment & instruction I received while attending Midwest Bartenders School, and also to update you on some experiences of mine since graduation.

I happened to hear your ad for the school on the radio while out running some errands, and thought to myself, "what could a call hurt," so I did just that; that call was one of the better decisions I've made, I came in "just to get some info," and because of the reasonable pricing & immense area that the course covered, I decided to sign up.

I decided to take the weekend course due to my work & college class schedule, which may I add that the flexibility of course offerings is a plus. I graduated on July 27th and by the following weekend was confidently working in a suite for the Brickyard 400; and to my amazement, walked out that weekend with over $600 in tips that more than covered my tuition at the school. At the Brickyard event, I was able to make a connection that just this past weekend, allowed me to travel to Tampa Florida to help in opening a new night club.

In closing, I would just like to take a second to stress to anyone interested in working in the hospitality field, to jump all over the chance to take this course; and again, thank you for the opportunity and the experience.

A very appreciative MBS grad,

Josh B.
