Weekly on Tuesday evenings, 6-8pm from 11 August to 6 October
2026 (Exam on this day).
The WSET Level 2 Award in Wines is intended
for those with little previous experience in the field of wine. Students will
also be introduced to the main styles of wines produced by key grape varieties
and a specific number of regions. By the end of the course a student will know,
simply by reading a wine label, what most wines taste like.
The
course is very suitable for people who are not employed in the drinks industry
but wish to learn more about the subject. However, it is important that
potential students appreciate that this is primarily a professional development
course for the hospitality industry and is approached in that way by our
tutors.
The course will be run in an weekly format over nine weeks
at Prince Wine Store, 177 Bank Street, South Melbourne, 3205.
There will
be an exam in the final week. You will receive your results and a
certificate within 6-12 weeks of completing the course.
Because of
the intensive nature of the course we advise that you collect your reading
materials well in advance of the course date.
There is a $185 fee to
re-sit the exam should you not pass and a $100 fee is you do not turn up for the
exam, plus re-registration fees equal to the re-sit fee.
If a student
cancels their enrolment within 72 hours of the course commencing, an 80%
refund will be provided. This course requires a minimum of 8 people to run.
The course specification can be found here.
