Novice to Professional Course in Wines & Spirits

COURSE AIMS The Course is aimed at those who wish to gain in-depth knowledge of wines and spirits for use in employment in the wine and spirits trade or associated sectors but have no prior knowledge of wine and spirits. Students successfully passing the course examinations will achieve the Level 3 Advanced Certificate in Wines & Spirits. The Advanced Certificate is the entry qualification required for the WSET Level 4 Diploma course. The course does not require entrants to have any prior knowledge of wines and spirits as the course is taught through a series of modules that cover foundation through to advanced level. Knowledge gained in the modules will be supported by a series of tutored tastings and a visit to a vineyard and winery. All modules are fully supported by WSET produced study materials which are sent to students in advance of the course modules. Students will also have access to an online classroom for the duration of the course and two weeks prior to the course start date. All modules are taught by experienced WSET Educators.

The course will be taught over two weeks (Monday - Friday) in five day blocks, block A will cover the Foundation and Intermediate modules and block B the Advanced module. Module tests will take place on the last day or final session of the module. Module tests will be accessed through the online classroom.  The WSET Advanced examination will take place on the last day of teh course at the WSET London Wine & Spirit School.
