About The Wine & Spirit Education Trust

Grape Experience is the Approved Program Provider for the Wine & Spirit Education Trust in the Greater Boston and Northern California areas. Now in its 40th year, the WSET has become the leading provider of training for the alcoholic beverage trade. The four core courses offered by the Trust – Intermediate Certificate, Advanced Certificate, Spirits Certificate, and Diploma – are studied widely throughout the US and the world. In fact, each year WSET offers courses and processes over 24,000 examinations from students in 50 countries around the globe who are studying for one of its qualifications.

WSET qualifications are part of the UK qualifications framework, and the education courses leading to WSET qualifications are an invaluable source of information for students to enhance their knowledge of wines and spirits. WSET qualifications are not a guarantee of employment or career progression, nor do they form part of any regulated qualifications framework outside UK.
