Our Values and Commitments

Our mission is to distil and safeguard wine and spirits culture by sharing knowledge with as many as possible to ensure the professionalisation of all industry players. Therefore, our challenge is to build a rich heritage of skills and knowledge in wines and spirits to promote our industry globally. Furthermore, we want to act in service of current and future generations and help them find their place. So we act daily to innovate in our pedagogical approach to support‎ ‎and train each learner inclusively. We seek to connect all our stakeholders‎ ‎ : learners, educators, alumni, and partners in a collaborative spirit. We focus our commitments on five pillars.

Innovating

Innovation is our DNA. At WiSP, we cultivate creativity in the service of educational excellence. We rely on active and collaborative teaching methods that combine theory and practice to facilitate the learning of demanding certifications. Our teams are constantly innovating and testing new approaches to improve the learning experience while adapting to the desires and motivations of each individual.

Supporting

Without exception, individualised support for all learners is a foundational pillar of the WiSP philosophy and is particularly important to us. We aim to create a relationship of trust conducive to learning and success before, during and after our training sessions. We offer hands-on support to each learner in reaching their objectives by listening to their needs and difficulties.

Training

We also know that our profession can contribute to employability and the emergence of new skills. Passionate and committed, we sincerely defend the accessibility of our training courses to as many people as possible. We are also committed to transmitting a taste for learning so that professionals will want to continue expanding their skill sets throughout their lives.
