What is WSET Level 3 in Wines HYBRID program?
Our Hybrid WSET Level 3 in Wines format is thoughtfully designed for students who need flexibility in their schedule, without compromising on the quality of their learning experience. This format offers the best of both worlds: independent study, combined with structured support and expert guidance throughout the entire journey.
Students will have the option to attend an in-person palate calibration day at the beginning of the course — while not mandatory, we highly recommend it for aligning tasting techniques and building confidence early on.
Throughout the course, students will benefit from our comprehensive Study & Support Program (full details available HERE). This is a resource-rich, educator-led program designed to keep students motivated, engaged, and on track. It’s truly the program I wish I had when I was preparing for my own WSET Level 3 exam.
Finally, students will attend the in-person exam at the end of the course.
We’re incredibly proud of this hybrid approach, as it reflects our commitment to accessibility, excellence, and student success.
