Visit your favored liquor-serving establishment and strike up a conversation with a bartender. Ask which Connecticut bartender school he attended and whether he recommends it. Even if your bartender isn't a Connecticut native, he may recommend several choice schools.
Contact your local community college. Many community colleges, including Gateway (in New Haven) and Tunxis (in Farmington) offer bartender certification courses. Some courses are scheduled during the summer months. Flip through a school's most recent course catalog to view its offerings.
Browse your local classified ads. Because most bartender schools are inexpensive and offer quick certification, Connecticut employment publications or Internet listings often publish their ads.
Consult your county's business listings in the phone book. Search under "Bars," "Bartending" or "Trade Schools" for best results.
Perform an Internet search. Most schools have websites that offer a wealth of information for prospective students. Search the web for "bartender school Connecticut" for the maximum number of results. Filter results by including the name of your town or city.
