Hi,

the above information is fairly accurate, although the International Higher Qualification is designed for students for whom English is not their first language, or where the Level 3 Award in Wines & Spirits is not available in their mother tongue. Similar to the Level 3 Award in Wine & Spirits in content, but with a different exam which excludes the short written answer sections from both the theory and tasting papers (which forms part of the Level 3 Awards in Wines and Spirits assessment).

Additionally, although WSET courses are taught through a network of over 600 course providers across 62 countries, the WSET head offices are located in London, not in New York. The address is 39-45 Bermondsey Street London SE1 3XF and the contact details are Tel: +44 (0)20 7089 3800; Email: wset@wset.co.uk
