The course is based around a five-week, six-module online programme with a recommendation of six hours study per week to cover the online activities and read the relevant chapters in the textbook. The course modules should be followed in sequential order during this five-week window. Regular access and participation in the course online activities is essential for this mode of study.
The course prepares the student for our qualification and they are guided by a WSET educator. The student can contact the educator any time for the duration of the scheduled course, should they have any questions. Each module includes a series of independent activities to help students understand the key styles of spirits and how they are made.
Students should be advised to taste a range of spirits during their studies. A list of recommended tasting samples can be found in the Specification. Students can post their tasting notes in the Online Classroom for review by the educator. Additional tastings may be included by the APP at their discretion.

Examinations:
WSET Online Educator:
All of WSET Online Educators hold the highest qualification WSET offers in their specialist subject. For example, to teach wine qualifications online at any level, they must have our Level 4 Diploma in Wines. To teach our spirits qualifications, they must have the Level 3 Award in Spirits and so on. Many of the educators hold additional qualifications making them experts and leaders in their subjects. These include degrees in viticulture, oenology or business, and diplomas and intensive training in distillation and sake brewing. Several either have achieved or are studying for their Master of Wine accreditation. WSET require their Online Educators
to grade and comment on student feedback tests and assignments at levels 3 and 4. This grading has a dual purpose. For the educator, this assessment allows them to monitor their students’ progress, and by monitoring their students’ successes or weaknesses, adapt their teaching as needed. For WSET, this assessment allows them to monitor the educators’ performance, so they might intercede and offer additional support as required.
