The FuW Wine Connoisseur Diploma® with IHK Certificate
Seminar Format
What It's About
Wine experts developed the FuW Wine Connoisseur Diploma® for the hospitality industry. The aim is to counter the acute shortage of skilled workers in this service-intensive sector, as this training is designed as an upskilling programme. The target groups are temporary staff, untrained assistants, school dropouts, career changers and returners. In short: employees who already do a good job in the company but are to be strengthened in the workplace with regard to wine. Hospitality businesses in which wine plays a role can retain employees and offer their guests sound wine advice.
Objectives

Content
The programme consists of 6 consecutive modules, which are delivered in our training programme either as individual modules or in two 3-day blocks. In module 6, individual hospitality-focused topics are taught and practised.
