Title 9 Part 106

This Part shall apply to all Alcohol Training Awareness Program (ATAP) school certificates of approval and student certificates of completion issued pursuant to the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law.

An application for an ATAP school certificate of approval must be made on a form designated by the authority and contain such information as shall be required by the authority, including but not limited to all proposed course curriculum materials. Each ATAP school applicant shall designate an individual to act as a director, and the director shall be responsible for filing the application for ATAP school certificate of approval, administration of approved ATAP school curriculum, issuance of student certificates of completion, and maintaining all of the ATAP school records, as required by the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law and this Part. Completed applications for ATAP school certificates of approval, program materials, and the statutorily required application fee as set forth in the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law must be forwarded to New York State Liquor Authority, Alcohol Training Awareness Program, 80 South Swan Street, Suite 900, Albany, NY 12210. (Application fees must be in the form of a certified check or money order, and made payable to the New York State Liquor Authority.)

All approved classroom ATAP schools must provide the authority with a minimum of 14 days prior notification in advance of all classroom sessions utilizing a form and containing such information as shall be designated by the authority.

At the conclusion of each classroom session for approved classroom ATAP schools, the director or such employee as shall be designated by the director, shall provide each student that has successfully completed the approved classroom ATAP curriculum with a student certificate of completion on a form designated by the authority. Within seven days after any ATAP school has held a session of an approved ATAP program (whether classroom or online), the school must transmit to the authority a roster of all students who successfully completed said class, in a format as directed by the authority. Within seven days after the completion of a session of any approved ATAP school (whether classroom or online), the school must transmit to each person who has successfully completed the approved ATAP curriculum a certificate of completion in a format as directed by the authority.

The authority shall prescribe the form and manner of issuance of renewal applications for ATAP certificates of approval, which in all cases shall include an affidavit signed by the school’s director reporting on changes in any information included in the school’s original application for an ATAP school certificate of approval. Each application for renewal shall include the statutorily required application fee as set forth in the Alcoholic Beverage Control Law and must be forwarded to New York State Liquor Authority, Alcohol Training Awareness Program, 80 South Swan Street, Suite 900, Albany, NY 12210. (Application fees must be in the form of a certified check or money order, and made payable to the New York State Liquor Authority.)

The authority shall prescribe the form and manner of issuance of ATAP student certificates of completion, which shall be deemed expired three years after the date of the classroom or online ATAP session for which they were granted.

In the event that any application or renewal application pursuant to this Part is disapproved by the authority, the applicant may seek reconsideration of the determination by the members of the authority. Requests for reconsideration must be submitted in writing to: Secretary to the Authority, 80 South Swan Street, Suite 900, Albany, NY 12210-8002. Such requests shall then be reviewed by a member of the authority and the determination by the member of the authority thereon shall be considered a final determination of the authority.

ATAP school certificates of approval may be revoked by the authority for failure to adhere to the authority’s rules and regulations. Revocation hearings arising under this Part shall be conducted pursuant to Parts 53 and 54 of the authority’s rules and regulations (9 NYCRR Parts 53 and 54.)
