WSET Level 2 Award in Wines (Wednesday Evenings)

This exciting and structured course is the Wine and Spirit Education Trust (WSET) Level 2 Award in Wines and is intended as vocational training in product knowledge for those employed in the drinks industry who have little previous knowledge of the broad range of wines available. The qualification is suitable wherever a good level of product knowledge is required to underpin job skills and competencies. The course is also appropriate for those not employed in the drinks industry but who have a serious interest in wine, and wish to broaden their knowledge in a structured way. This qualification has full accreditation from the UK Government’s Qualifications & Curriculum Authority (NQCF) as a Level 2 Vocational Qualification. EVENING COURSES - WHO ARE THEY DESIGNED FOR?

• We run evening sessions for those who are unable to sacrifice a working day or a weekend.
• The sessions run for 2.5 hours, starting at 7pm
