Viticulture; adult education
Winegrowers in the main or sideline business without professional training as a winemaker can acquire knowledge and skills in the field of viticulture and cellar management. Applicants must have professional experience and are owners of a winery or employees.
Description
Aim of the training
Environmentally friendly and quality-oriented work in the vineyard and in the cellar.
Form of the educational measure
The seminars are held in courses. The early scheduling of the courses enables the participants to plan the dates in time.
All seminars in theory and practice are offered in an adult-oriented form. They build on existing viticultural and cellar management experience and consequently stand out clearly from the didactics and methodology of the training. They presuppose own engagement in theory and practice and assume that certain parts of the advanced training are completed on the participant's own responsibility on the winery.

- 70 hrs. theory (single days, mostly Thursday, Friday and Saturday)
