Deposit on WSET Level 3 Award in Wines in Liverpool

One Foot in the Grapes can’t change the time commitment of the WSET Level 3 Award in Wines, but we can offer flexibility with payments.

The course offers a deep, and rewarding, insight into the world of wine; yet the cost of gaining this advance knowledge can be prohibitive.

To secure your spot on the course in Liverpool beginning July 21 2025, you can pay a £350 deposit. An option to spread the cost over three payments is available subject to eligibility.

The remainder of the study fee must be paid by May 13 2025.

There’s a discount for our previous students.

The Drinks Trust Develop scheme
One Foot in the Grapes has partnered with the Drinks Trust charity to make our courses available within the trust’s Develop bursary scheme.
I've sat both WSET 2 & 3 in wines with Jane. She's got a good way of putting forward information to suit everyone. No one learner is the same and she caters really well to cover all bases. A great personal touch.
