Affording a continued wine education in this economy is tough – any advice?
Yes – this program is invaluable to you if you are a retailer, wholesaler, wine and spirit buyer, food and beverage manager, public relations, brand manager, media or restaurant/bar employee. The level at which you work is considerably enhanced through the WSET program. If you are in sales, your knowledge will give you street credit with buyers and you will understand their white space needs. If you are a retailer, you will be smarter and more effective at your job. As a brand manager, you will have a better commercial understanding of the whole business. The investment in your education pays out threefold in your performance. Many Wine and Spirit Education Trust students talk to their employers about funding all or part of their education. Likewise, there are other options for you – contact us with your individual request if you are interested in making the WSET work for your career.
