So you want to do the WSET Diploma
Achieving the WSET Diploma changed my life. I’ll be honest: it was not a walk in the park. Committing myself to the journey, however, proved to be worth it in so many ways. It gave me a thorough understanding of the world of wines, fine-tuned my palate and boosted my CV with a globally-recognised qualification. It was also the stepping-stone for my Master of Wine studies, which broadened my prospects within the industry even further. – Anne McHale MW
