Let’s talk about wine education and how to make it more affordable. If you’ve looked into WSET classes, you know they can be pricey. For example, Level 2 in the U.S. averages around $800, Level 3 is about $2,000, and the Diploma is roughly $6,000. And that’s not even including wine samples or travel expenses!
In this episode, I cover:
Payment plans: Many APPs (Approved Program Providers) offer payment options. For instance, Wine Educate offers two installments for Level 2 and three for Level 3.
Employer sponsorship: There’s been an incredible increase in employers—restaurants, distributors, and importers—covering WSET courses for their staff. It’s a win-win; I share examples of how this benefits both employees and businesses.
Scholarships and mentorship programs: From local APPs offering scholarships to unique opportunities like being a teacher’s assistant (TA), there are so many creative ways to offset the costs of wine education.
To make things even easier, I’ve compiled a list of the top 10 wine scholarships and mentorship programs. Get the list HERE This list will continue to evolve, so if you know of a scholarship or program that’s been helpful to you, please email me at [email protected]. I’d love to include it!
Finally, I encourage you to map out your wine education goals. Whether it’s achieving a Master of Wine certification or simply taking your first Level 1 course, having a plan will help you align your timeline and budget with the opportunities available.
Next week, I’ll be sharing why WSET Level 1 is my favorite class to teach and why you shouldn’t skip it—even if you have some wine experience already.
