Court-Accepted Washington
Alcohol Awareness
Class

Yes, in most cases — superior courts and the Department of Corrections in Washington generally accept online, self-paced alcohol awareness certificates for non-DUI orders. Because the final decision rests with your judge or probation officer, confirm the format with your court first; if they decline our certificate, you're covered by the money-back guarantee.

Yes, 100% guaranteed. Our courses are accepted by courts in all 50 states. If your court doesn't accept our certificate for any reason, we'll give you a full refund.

Our curriculum is created by Linda Barnes, a Certified Alcohol and Drug Counselor (CADC) with a Master's degree in Counseling from Grand Canyon University. With over 10 years of professional experience, she's designed evidence-based content that courts trust. You'll learn:

• The science of how alcohol affects the body and brain
• Risks of misuse, including legal and financial consequences
• How to identify patterns of risky drinking
• Practical harm reduction and prevention strategies
• How to make informed decisions in social situations

40% of our reviews mention "learned a lot" — even students who initially enrolled just to meet a court requirement report gaining practical skills they use daily.

Check your court order or ask your attorney. The required hours should be specified in your court documentation, plea agreement, or probation terms.

If you're unsure, here are some general guidelines:

• 4 hours: Often required for minor incidents or first-time offenses
• 8 hours: Common for misdemeanor charges or public intoxication cases
• 12 hours: Meets requirements for most state courts

When in doubt, choose more hours. A 12-hour certificate will satisfy a requirement for 4, 8, or 12 hours. Courts accept certificates that exceed the minimum requirement.

That depends on the length your court requires — 4, 8, or 12 hours. Many students complete the 4-hour course in one sitting; you can also stop and resume anytime — your progress is automatically saved.

This Alcohol Awareness course is 100% self-paced. There are no weekly classes to attend and no waiting periods.

This means you can complete the entire course in one sitting if you wish, or break it up over several days. You have full control over your schedule.

If your court order specifically requires "weekly sessions" (e.g., a 12-week program), this self-paced course may not meet that specific requirement. However, for standard hourly requirements (e.g., "12 hours of alcohol awareness"), this self-paced format is widely accepted.

Yes — our course works on any device. Over 50% of our students complete their course entirely on their phone.

You can switch between devices anytime. Start on your phone during lunch, continue on your laptop at home — your progress is automatically saved and synced.

No app download required. The course runs in your web browser (Chrome, Safari, Firefox, or Edge) on iPhone, Android, iPad, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers.

Each course includes one final test at the end. To help you prepare, there are practice questions after each lesson so you can check your understanding as you go.

98% of our students pass the final test on their first try. The questions are based directly on the course material, so if you've been following along, you'll be well-prepared.

If you'd like extra peace of mind, you can add Unlimited Retakes when purchasing your course — this lets you retake the final test as many times as needed.

Immediately. As soon as you complete the course, your certificate is ready to download. You can print it or email it directly to your attorney or probation officer.

Your Certificate of Completion includes all the information courts typically require:

• Your full legal name (as entered during enrollment)
• Course title: Alcohol Awareness Course
• Course hours: 4, 8, or 12 hours (matching your enrollment)
• Completion date
• Unique certificate ID for verification
• Provider information: Courseable contact details

The certificate is a professional PDF that you can print or email directly to your attorney, probation officer, or court clerk.

Yes — your Proof of Enrollment letter is emailed automatically as soon as you enroll.

This official letter confirms that you've enrolled in the course and includes your name, enrollment date, course title, and expected completion timeframe. Many attorneys use this to demonstrate to the court that their client is taking proactive steps.

It arrives as a PDF you can forward straight to your attorney or court.

No, this is not a DUI/DWI program. These are different types of court requirements:

• Alcohol Awareness Course (this course): Designed for general alcohol-related offenses like public intoxication, minor in possession, or workplace requirements. It is an educational course focusing on awareness and prevention.
• DUI/DWI School: Driving Under the Influence (DUI) and Driving While Intoxicated (DWI) programs are state-regulated and typically require specific state licensure and in-person attendance.

If your court order specifically requires "DUI School," "DWI Education," or references a specific DMV code, this course will not satisfy that requirement.

However, if your paperwork simply says "Alcohol Awareness Class" or "Alcohol Education" without referencing a DUI-specific state program, our course is widely accepted. If you're unsure, please ask your attorney or court clerk to clarify.
