The wine appreciation portions of the consumer and trade courses are the same. They cover the terms and concepts important for describing wines. The trade courses contain additonal modules and video-clips that focus on wine sales and service. In addition, specialized worksheets help staff immediately apply course materials to their job. To learn more about trade certification and our courses for the trade, read through the course descriptions and look at Train with Wine Spectator in the Trade Course catalog. Our two trade courses are the ABCs of Wine Sales and Service and Understanding Professional Wine Sales and Service. Since the seminar courses contain varietal and regional information that is important for the trade, they are listed in the trade course catalog as well as in the consumer course catalog. The seminar courses do not contain any sales or service information specifically for the trade.
