Benefits
Personal development
Most people come to the Coach because wine genuinely interests them and they want to understand it properly. The free Foundation is a real grounding, not a teaser — and if the subject grips you, the higher stages go a long way further.
Career enhancement
Knowledgeable wine staff lift both customer satisfaction and restaurant revenue. The Coach builds that knowledge methodically and gives you a structured way to show it — and even the free stage helps in a job interview or at someone else's table.
Become wine confident
The first goal is simple: never feel uncertain handing back a wine list, choosing a bottle for dinner, visiting a winery, or asking a sommelier a question. Short sessions and ideas met in different contexts make the confidence genuine, not memorised.
Features
Evidence based
Designed by a former professor using what is known about how adults actually learn — spaced returns, testing rather than telling, immediate feedback. The Coach learns from you too: how it is delivered is shaped by your feedback as you use it, and play is part of how the learning works.
Learning across media
The Coach meshes your learning across different media — the scenarios, the podcast, the comics, short videos and the book. A pairing you meet in a question returns in a story, an episode or a chapter, so it stays with you. And it fits your life: five minutes in a queue or an hour on a Sunday, always picking up where you left off.
Accessible and affordable
Start without paying anything and learn a great deal at Foundation. The paid stages cost a fraction of an equivalent classroom course, and the materials were built with accessibility in mind from the start, not as an afterthought.
Three stages, from Foundation to Fellowship.
