About the National Wine School
Founded in California, the school’s mission is to elevate wine education from the restaurant floor to the university classroom. NWS is the only state-recognized sommelier school in the United States. The school offers online wine classes for sommeliers and wine lovers and wine programming for colleges and universities.

Our online wine courses were developed to fill a need in sommelier education. The best wine education is state-recognized or regionally accredited, exclusively offered at colleges and accredited wine schools. These types of wine programs are not available to most people in the wine trade. By offering our state-recognized programs online, we can provide wine professionals and enthusiasts with a much-needed service.
State-of-the-art AI systems back our online programs to adapt our programming to the needs of the students. Each program consists of professionally developed videos and features the very best wine instructors working today. The programs are compelling and offer deep insights into the world of wine. Our exams use a patent-pending system to test core competencies beyond the screen. No other online wine course comes close to what we can offer our students.
