HYBRID CLASSES

What is a hybrid class?

Hybrid classes offer the flexibility of taking the lectures online from wherever you are, but still providing you with an in-class tasting workshop and exam. It is important to be aware of the following requirements:

  • Lectures are live online via Zoom (but also recorded if you can't make it)
  • Wine samples are included in the cost of a hybrid course (you won't taste as many wines as in an in-class course)

How do hybrid classes work?

Lectures and schedule Q&A sessions are conducted online. You sign up for a series of lectures and Q&A sessions with your live instructor. If you can't make a live online lecture, they are recorded so you can watch them at a later date.

Upon registering, you choose a workshop/exam time and location. You will travel to that location to complete the tasting workshop and the exam.

ONLINE CLASSES

What to consider?

While WSET online courses are a great option for many, it is important to be aware of the following requirements:

  • WSET examinations can be taken online through Remote Invigilation (RI), or attend the examination in person. Wine Plus+ will provide exam options.
  • Wine samples are not included in the cost of an online course.

How does the WSET Online Classroom work?

Each course has a set start and finish date, with clear guidelines on progression, however there are no fixed times to log-on as there is no “live” delivery of content. Students can complete their learning at times that suit them.

Students will learn through a range of independent and/or group activities supported by videos and quizzes, designed to achieve the required learning outcomes to prepare for the examination.

Throughout the course students will have access to a subject-specialist educator who’ll provide feedback on any assigned exercises and respond to course related queries.
