CLASS
WSET Level 1 Award in Beer Online
The course will be based around a four-week, six module online learning program with educator support available for the duration. The course modules should be followed in sequential order during this four-week window. The course material should take about six hours in total to complete, plus revision time. Regular access and participation in the course online activities is essential for this mode of study but there are no specific times you have to be online.
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 beer production and different styles of beer.
Students should be advised to taste a range of beers during their studies. All the required beers for the course can be found in the online equipment list.
Any additional beers 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 us at our discretion.
