 4 Reasons
WHY EBS IS THE BARSCHOOL FOR YOU
In the bartending industry there are quite a few schools out there to choose from. So, what makes
EBS stand out from the crowd? We can assure you that by joining EBS you will be signing up to
not only the World’s leading barschool but also an experience that you will cherish for life. We are
unchallenged in student satisfaction and here are four reasons why.

HARD WORK,
SPIRIT AND
SOUL
It is one of our great mottos and something that has been ingrained in the
EBS ethos since 1999. But what does it actually mean? Let’s break it down.

HARD WORK SPIRIT SOUL

No-one achieved anything
great without hard work.
We don’t want our students
to leave the course as
mediocre bartenders, we
want them to leave great. In
order to get to the standard
that employers around the
globe expect from us, hard
work is essential from both
participating sides of the
course – instructors and
students alike.
To have spirit (not the
alcoholic kind) is to maintain
a winner’s mentality despite
the obstacles in your path.
As we’ve established the
course is by no means
easy. But, it is how you
carry yourself through the
tougher parts of the course
that will set the great apart
from the good.
Soul is a quality that not
many people naturally
have. It is something that is
worked on and developed
over time. It is a mix of
optimism, personality and
charm; key ingredients for a
fantastic team player and an
exceptional bartender. Soul
is that one defining element
of a succesful bartender.

Combined, these three terms make up the perfect attitude to

our course and this motto is something that will stay with you
throughout your bartending career!

OUR APPROACH

Learning by doing is a vital way of teaching with EBS. Reports have

proven that 90% of what you learn is retained if you practice it

immediately after, compared to only 20% if you are only taught with

audio/visual learning aids. We want you to learn as much as possible

and therefore will get you actively involved in the classes!

We ensure you’ll have the perfect balance between work and play.

At the end of each day you’ll have plenty of downtime to brush up

on your cocktail knowledge or take your knowledge on the road

with you and your fellow bartenders, explore the incredible host of

bars in your chosen location.

 MEET AN INSTRUCTOR

‘The best thing about bartending is that

you’re surrounding yourself constantly in
a social atmosphere. You’re the supplier of
good times in an environment designed
specifically for people to lose their inhibitions
and have fun. The best thing about teaching
is watching your students progress and
knowing that you helped make that change
happen and maybe the passion you have, lit
a fire in someone and maybe that inspires
someone else. Teaching is incredibly
rewarding as you’re creating something,
something really great.

The best thing about working for EBS is being

able to travel all over the world, teaching and
meeting people from different walks of life.
Working with people with a shared passion
and being part of the EBS family is a fantastic
place to be.’

#EBSBARCELONA #EBSPHUKET #EBSKOS

Inspired by youtube videos,
Nicolas, found the world of
bartending calling and jetted
from Norway to #EBSBarcelona,
where he was able to further
practice his Spanish and fell in
love with the bartending industry.
As a finalist for our Ticket To The
World competition, Nicolás, once
again found himself experiencing
the month of a life-time all over
again at #EBSKos.
Now Nicolás is our event
manager at #EBSSydney
continuing to share his passion
with hundreds more.
Bitten with a solid case of the
travel bug Josefine wasn’t hard
to convince when her friends
suggested studying with
#EBSPhuket.
After graduating Josefine
stayed on with new found
friends and travelled Thailand.
During this time she met her
best friend for life. Together
they pursued their dream
as bartenders in Melbourne.
Eventually returning to
Sweden, Josefine found herself
longing to return to Australia.
Now, finally back in Melbourne
studying events while still using
her passion in bartending as
income in her new life.
A After a crazy month of
studying and partying with
#EBSKos Fred found himself
addicted to the EBS way of life.
Attracted to the island, Fred
gained employment at Kyttaro
Nightclub on Kos.
Since his course Fred is still
heavily involved with the
#EBSKos events team and is
wowing current students with his
cocktail skills.

the blink of an eye Jesper found
himself among the top 10 flairers

great opportunities and will be able to do so with new friends.
“I did the course in Kos 2012, since then I have been

#EBSBerlin

Berlin is an international hub of creativity that captivates everyone who
visits the city. The city offers its locals and tourists a very unique and
alternative lifestyle that you can’t experience anywhere else. One of main
differences between Berlin and other European cities is that it is a really
affordable city. Electronic and techno music are the mechanisms that keep
the city’s nightlife pumping all night long. You’ll discover power plants, TV
towers, and industrial buildings (with swimming pools) that have all been
converted into insane nightclubs.
The EBS Berlin school is located close to the city centre. The facility is in
keeping with the industrial style of the city, and allows you to stay behind
and train after school!
“I fell in love with Berlin because it’s so multicultural,
stylish and active. The city has a unique atmosphere
thanks to the incredible mix of people and its history.
A big part of the city’s buzz is due to the nightlife
which is unlike anything I’ve ever experienced!” -

 MEET #EBSCARE

‘After 18 years in my hometown I felt it was

time for a change so a friend and I booked
the #EBSBarcelona course! I had the best
time meeting people from all over the world.
I decided to stay in Barcelona and got a job
as a bartender in one of the best beach bars.
As summer was coming to an end I received
an email saying EBS care was hiring in Phuket.
Within 10 days of applying I was on a plane to
Thailand!

With #EBSCare I was able to travel around the

island, see sunsets, scooter-ride through jungles
and swim in beautiful waterfalls. I had daily
contact with new students who wanted to be a
part of the best bartender school in the world!
When your job doesn’t feel like working you
know you just love life!

A few months later we moved to Barcelona. Since

being back in Europe we’ve travelled to various
schools. My job gives me the opportunity to work
and travel around. I love it! From the small amount
of money and time I put into my course, I got the
best years of my life in return!
