常见问题

What is the LCQ in New Zealand?

The Licence Controller Qualification. It shows you know the Sale and Supply of Alcohol Act 2012 and host responsibility, and you need it to apply for or renew a manager's certificate.

How many questions are in the LCQ test and what is the pass mark?

ServiceIQ does not publish a fixed number of questions or a pass mark. Your answers are marked by an assessor, and the ServiceIQ online programme allows up to three attempts. Our practice sets use 80% as a guide.

Does my old LCQ from before 2013 still count?

Only if you completed the bridging test between 18 December 2013 and 31 January 2017. If not, ServiceIQ says your LCQ has expired and you must do it again.

What else do I need for a manager's certificate?

Councils ask that you are 20 or older and have relevant experience, often at least six months in licensed premises, as well as the LCQ. You apply to your district licensing committee through the local council.

Can I do the LCQ online?

Yes. ServiceIQ runs an online LCQ programme, and other training providers around New Zealand also offer the course.
