New Zealand Certificate in Cellar Operations

Step into the wine industry with confidence!

 

The first six weeks you will have an introduction into the wine industry, basics of winemaking and also practice the tasks required to work successfully in a cellar vintage crew.

 

The practical days out in wineries increase through the programme.

 

This leads to the opportunity of a paid practical vintage placement for 7-8 weeks while classes are paused to allow for uninterrupted support to vineyards. 

 

Post-vintage the last course, Wine Management Post-Fermentation will be taught in part-time classes.

 

If you are keen to see if you want to have a career in the wine industry, this is the perfect programme for you. It gives you a pathway into winery work, if you have no current experience.
