English for Wines and Spirits
CLOE / LTE Certifications

We offer training programs in wines, spirits, beers, and Japanese sake, combined with professionally oriented English language training, eligible for CPF funding.

Depending on your goals, you can prepare for the CLOE English certification, with a specialization in wines and spirits or in hospitality and catering (Japanese sake and beers), or follow an intensive pathway leading to the internationally recognized LTE certification.

The programs combine in-person sessions in Paris and Marseille with comprehensive online preparation, helping you optimize your learning and maximize your results

CLOE Certifications (Oral and Written Language Skills) are offered by the French Chambers of Commerce (CCI France). They assess language proficiency in both written and spoken communication and were created to meet the growing need for recognition of comprehensive language skills across various professional contexts.

1-hour online test (written + oral) – specialization in wines and spirits or hospitality and catering.

The LTE (LanguageCert Test of English) certificate is an international English proficiency exam, recognized across Europe. It assesses language skills in both written and spoken communication in professional contexts, aligned with the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) levels, from A1 to C2. This test is particularly suited to the needs of businesses, educational institutions, and candidates who wish to certify their level of English for academic or professional purposes.

I’m a whisky enthusiast and took the WSET Level 1 Spirits course for pleasure. I feel I now taste and appreciate spirits much better.

was looking for a good place to take WSET Level 3 in Wines, and choosing Weeno was an excellent decision.

As a big wine enthusiast, I really appreciated Weeno’s selection. I discovered small French estates as well as some hidden gems from around the world.
