2PreparationPrior KnowledgeSpecificationEverything on the Diploma course lectures, (where appropriate) notesand examination - presupposes youhave a sound grasp of the up-to-date,Advanced Certificate Syllabuscontent. It may be worthwhile, inpreparation for the course, to re-readthe course book for the AdvancedCertificate (Exploring the World ofWines and Spirits) to refresh yourknowledge.It is very important that you read theSpecification. Any assessment will berestricted to the Learning Outcomes( what you will need to prove youare able to do ) and the Syllabus ( thecontext in which those learning outcomes will be assessed ) containedwithin the Specification.This kind of preparation will help youpinpoint areas of weakness in yourknowledge prior to lectures and focusyour preparation, this in turn will helpyou make the most of your lecturesand allow the speaker to focus on theDiploma syllabus requirements ratherthan going over ‘old ground’.By reading the Specification you willbe able to differentiate between whatyou need to know and what is nice toknow. For example you will not haveto study every AC within a particularregion - only the ones listed in theSpecification. The Specification alsocontains the following: The Diploma structure The examination regulationsThe aims and objectivesof the qualificationThe Unit assessment scheduleSample questions
Unit Study GuidesHow to use theDiploma Study GuidesBreakdown of SyllabusInformationElsewhere in this file you will find acopy of the Diploma Specificationwhich contains the syllabus for eachunit. The Study Guides are dividedup into the Syllabus Units andElements. You should read the guidesin association with both the requiredreading and the syllabus. Rememberthe examination and assessments willbe based on the syllabus.In some instances information oncertain subjects may not be availablefrom other sources, or may be out ofdate. In these cases the notes will actas the main information resource.The Oxford Companion to WineThere are many valuable sources ofinformation on wines and spirits,and we would always recommendexploring these as widely as possible.The DiplomaThis Diploma programme is a combination of self-study and lectures, andwe have now introduced a moredirected approach to the self-studyaspect.The Diploma notes now play a dualrole: as a study guideas an information resourceStudy GuideThe notes will help you gather andinterpret information from your mainreference resource. They do this by: asking questions that will helpyou cover the key areas setting activities to enable you toanalyse information and apply itin a business setting completing each subject sectionwith self-assessment questionsand answers that will help youcheck what you have learned andmonitor your progressHowever, in order to ensure consistency across the programme, wehave chosen The Oxford Companionto Wine, (Third Edition) edited byJancis Robinson, as the requiredreading for the Diploma.For the vast majority of subjectareas, this volume contains all theinformation you need to complete theDiploma programme. In the fewinstances where the book does notdeal with a subject – such as whisky,for example – or is not up to date, thenotes themselves will supply theinformation.The entries contain many crossreferences to related subjects, and itis important that you follow these upwhere relevant in order to obtain amore rounded picture ( although it ishard not to be sidetracked by somefascinating trails of facts! )For the specialist, technical Unit onWine Production (Unit 2), the requiredreading is Understanding WineTechnology by David Bird MW.For Unit 4 (Spirits) the requiredreading is Distilling Knowledge: AProfessional Guide to Spirits andLiqueurs by Dave Broom and theWSET . These are obtainable by postfrom the WSET.3
4Unit Study GuidescontinuedRecommended ReadingWorking through the Diploma NotesIn addition to the required resource,we will recommend further reading orother information sources from timeto time. Often these will be bookswritten by subject matter experts, butsometimes we may direct you to awebsite or other source.These booklets form the basic framework for your study and you shouldwork through them in conjunctionwith your reference resource. In mostcases we have not left space foranswers to study guide activities, soyou will need a good supply of paperfor these. However, there is room inthe margins of the booklets for anyideas or comments.Don’t feel you have to buy or exploreall these resources. They are there toprovide extra detail if you wish topursue it; if you choose not to, thiswill not damage your chances ofpassing the closed book examinations. You will however need todemonstrate evidence of moreextensive reading in order to gain apass grade for the courseworkassessment.Study advicePlanningAlthough the notes will provide plentyof guidance for your studies, werecommend that you take a little timeto draw up your own plan of howand when you will work through theprogramme, and what otherresources you can put together toassist you.Study Guide ActivitiesThese are important pointers to thekey facts and issues you need toaddress in your studies, so try not toskip any. You may not always needto write down full answers, but youshould ensure you make comprehensive notesObjectivesRead through the learning objectivesfor each section before you start andwhen you have finished. They willshow you where you are going andallow you to check what you haveachieved.Self-checksThese appear at the back of eachmain section. Once again, you shouldtackle them all, as they are a goodway of checking your knowledge.If you have difficulty with anyanswers, check back through therelevant part of the booklet to refreshyour memory.
Unit Study GuidescontinuedBusiness ApplicationOther Sources of KnowledgeRevisionA number of the activities refer toresearching information or applyinglearning ‘in your business’. If you donot work in the wine and spirittrade, try to obtain this informationfromsomeonewhodoes.Otherwise, make some educatedguesses!It is important to explore as manyavenues of wider knowledge aspossible. These might include:You will obviously need to collateand review all the information youhave gathered and identify and plugany gaps.LecturesIf you are attending a formal courseof study your speakers will be ableto answer questions, so read thenotes, and relevant sections ofThe Oxford Companion to Winebefore the session so you can gowith a clear understanding of thesubject, or at least a list of relevantquestions. The Institute of Winesand Spirits work colleagues withspecialised knowledge of aparticular field visits to local vineyards,wineries, specialist museumsand exhibitions, either at homeor overseasThese tips may help: It’s never too early to startrevising. Don’t leave it all untilthe end of the course. If it helps, make a structuredplan of what to revise and when Try not to revise in chunkslonger than about 30 or 40minutes without a break (evenif it is just for a cup of coffee) Build in some variety:don’t revise the same subjectfor hours on endwebsites questions – there is no shameattached to ignorance, so askquestions!Many students have their owntried and tested revisiontechniques.These might include: tasting experience both onand off the course informal tasting groups thatyou can organise with fellowstudents magazines and newspapersOther Study AdviceAll the above needs scheduling, ifonly to ensure that you can fit it allin! Students often ask how muchtime should be devoted to study.It is difficult to be specific, but asa guide, you should aim to spend,in private study for each unit, aminimum of four times the lecturetime devoted to it on the course. using a short note system withkey points or header words thatwill jog your memory to supplythe rest developing mnemonics rhymes, acronyms, stories usingkey words - to remember listsof names or perhaps headingsto larger bodies of information setting up revision groups offellow students and devisinggames, quizzes or otheractivities to stimulate recall offacts (accompanied perhapsby some wine from the regionyou’re revising) recording key information toplay back on a personal stereoor in your car remember that revision is nota passive process of reading you need to do things such aswriting questions, drawingdiagrams.Break your learning up into manageable chunks, particularly if it issome time since you were in formaleducation.Ask for help as soon as you thinkyou need it; don’t struggle on.5

ContextBased on evidence of what iscurrently taking place in wineproducing regions throughout theworld, the candidate shouldcompile a report to illustratewhether the bubble for thesevarieties has indeed burst or not.This report should be backed upby statistical evidence of what istaking place and should analysethe effect consumer demand ishaving on the situation, as well asconsider the various ways in whichthe wine trade and wine industryare reacting.Current trends in consumerpreference in the candidate’s localmarket.b) Report on Production:This should include analysis ofwhere these varieties are grown anddiscussion of current trends in thevineyard and the winery.c) Consumer demand:The candidate should considerwhat effect consumer demand ishaving on these varieties. Thisshould include discussion ofwhether the consumer is tired ofthese varieties and is thereforeseeking greater diversity andchoice of other varieties.

8Course Work Assignments1.1 Word-processing versus writingDo I have to word-process myessays, or is it okay to write themby hand? The answer is, the choiceis yours. Word-processed (WP) hasmany advantages; it is easier on theeye of the Examiner and gives aprofessional finish to your work.However, you will not lose marks ifyour assignment is hand written,provided your hand writing is neatand legible. An assignment that islittered with crossing out (and/orworse, the vestiges of last night’spizza), is too much to expect eventhe best intentioned examiner tostruggle with. Poorly presentedwritten work may result in a lowergrade been given to the assignment.WP has some clear advantages.Most notably, it is very easy foryou to make minor or majoramendments to your work withouthaving to re-write the wholeassignment; you can also use aformatting system which enablesyou to produce a very professionalprinted lay-out.There are disadvantages to WP too,which you should not ignore. WP isreliant on machinery. As you knowmachinery can go wrong.continuedComputer and printer failure arenever acceptable excuses forlate submission of work. If youare going to WP, ensure that youallow time for the machinery to goawry in some way - it almost alwayswill!Only hard copies of assignmentswill be marked. You should alsomake a hard copy for your ownrecord, as originals will not bereturned after marking.1.2 Assignment PresentationAssignments submitted for markingmust be in written English.The main text should be in a single12 point font, e.g. Times NewRoman or similar. An alternativefont such as Arial in a smaller pointsize may be more appropriate indiagrams and tables. Use boldingfor emphasis within the text and forsection headings.Any material copied directly fromanother author must be enclosedin quotation marks, followed immediately by a reference to the source.Individual quotations should notnormally exceed one paragraph,and quotations should not exceed5% of the length of the report.Text which has been ‘lifted’ withoutthe correct acknowledgement willhave a negative impact on the finalgrade awarded for your work.Colour printing may be used forcharts, screen-shots etc. Clarity ismore important than fancy graphics.Avoid clip-art except where requiredfor drawing diagrams.You are responsible for the accuracyof the finished work, so after it hasbeen completed you should usethe spell-checker to catch anytypographical and spelling errors.You should also proof-read ityourself (or have it read by someone else), as the spell-checker isnot likely to catch every error.Sloppy proof reading will certainlydetract from the content of yourwork.Your assignment must be of theappropriate length. Assignmentssubmitted with less than 1,500words will be graded a fail.Assignments over 2,000 words willonly be marked up to 2000 words.Any work over 2,000 will not beconsidered towards the overallmark.The word count should not include: IndexBibliographyAnnotations on diagrams,pictures etc.A word count MUST be included.
Course Work Assignmentscontinued1.3 Covering InformationYou will need to complete an Assignment Report Form (ARF) and attach it to your hard copy of the assignment. An assignment missing the ARF will not be marked but returned to the Approved Programme Provider. It can be resubmitted,however at best this may result in a delay in you receiving your results, at worst it could result in a fail grade.DIPLOMA ASSIGNMENT REPORT FORMCandidateNumberTitle NumberApproved ProgrammeProvider (APP)1/2/3/4(circle as appropriate)ResitYes / No(circle as appropriate)AssignmentWord CountAssignmentTitleSubmissionDateI declare that the attached work is entirely my own, other than in the sections where all sources of reference are clearlyand properly indicated and acknowledged.

Below is a graphic illustration of how this simple structurecan be applied to an assignment.Assignment StructureBeginningMiddleEndIntroductionMain TextConclusionsThe introduction:The main body of the assignment:The conclusion: Sets the question topic againsta wider background Your key points are clearlypresented Clarifies your understandingof the question Defines key or problematictermsThe points you make aresystematically backed up byfacts / evidence / examples /arguments Outlines the approach you willbe taking to the question Quotations and references toother works are accurately cited Any diagrams, figures or tablesare labelled properlyBrings together the main pointsLinks back to the questionStates clearly your conclusion(s)The three parts fit the useful maxim about communications usually abbreviated to:‘tell ‘em, tell ‘em and tell ‘em.The IntroductionThe Main BodyThe Conclusion- tell the examiner what youare going to tell them- tell them in detail- tell them what you havetold them - in other words summarise
Course Work AssignmentscontinuedA report may require you to present a case study or argument, which may be more complex than a straightforwardessay style assignment, below is a graphic illustration of how the three part structure can be adapted.Assignment Structure - ReportIntroductionMain ecommendation Setting outthe situation1.5 Report and Essay WritingThis section is written to providebasic information regarding ourgeneral expectations for reportand essay writing. An assignmentmight still speak of an essay - butin business you write reports.However, regardless of the formatadopted, it is vital you recognisethat writing skills are essentialthroughout your course and probably essential if you are to develop aworthwhile career. Effective communication is at the heart of goodmanagement. Consequently, it isworth taking some time to thinkabout the nature of the task and thebest ways of tackling it.Understanding what you should beaiming to achieve when writingreports and essays, and the bestways of going about it, will helpensure that you derive maximumbenefit as well as achieving goodmarks.Describing theimplicationsReviewing thepossibilitiesYou should also note that theapproach adopted for this minireport could usefully be adopted inyour theory exam for Unit 3.1.5.1 Understanding the QuestionIt is essential to start by reading thequestion carefully. What exactly areyou asked to do? Is it a broadsurvey or is a narrow focuseddiscussion appropriate?What are the assumptions behindthe question? What are the limits tothe topic?Does it require you to consider oneissue or more than one?In focusing on the assignment task,it is often useful to underline the keywords in the question - those thatspecify the kind of report or essayrequired. Here are some examples:Making arecommendationDefine: Set down the precisemeaning of a word or phrase. Insome cases it may be necessary ordesirable to examine different,possible or often used definitions.Describe: Give a detailed or graphicaccount.Differentiate or Distinguish: Explainthe difference.Discuss: Investigate or examine byargument; sift and debate; givereasons for and against. Alsoexamine the implications.Evaluate: Make an appraisal of theworth of something, in the light ofits truth or usefulness. Include, to alesser degree, an opinion.Explain: Make plain; interpret andaccount for; give reasons for.Analyse: minutely examine thestructure or component parts.Illustrate: Use a figure or diagram toexplain or clarify; or make clear bythe use of concrete examples.Compare: Look for similarities anddifferences and perhaps reach aconclusion as to which is preferable.Interpret: Expound the meaning of;make clear and explicit, usuallygiving your own judgements also.Contrast: Set in position, in order tobring out differences.Criticise: Give a reasoned judgementabout the merits of theories, oropinions about the truth of facts.Back your judgement by a discussion of evidence or reasoninginvolved.Justify: Show adequate grounds fordecisions or conclusions; andanswer the main objections likely tobe made to them.11
12Course Work AssignmentsOutline : Give the main features, orgeneral principles of a subject,omitting minor details and emphasising structure and arrangements.Relate : Show how things areconnected to each other, and towhat extent they are alike, or affecteach other.Review : Make a survey of; examinethe subject carefully.State : Present in brief, clear form.Summarise : Give a concise accountof the chief points of a matter,omitting details and examples.Trace : Follow the development orhistory of a topic from some pointof origin.Sometimes an assignment or topicwill include more than one ofthese key words. In this case it isimportant to take account of all andnot just some of them. For example,if you were asked to describe anddiscuss a theory or event, youwould need to give a detailedaccount of the theory/event andthen give a response for andagainst, examining implication, etc.If you only focus on one of thekey words, you will only havecompleted half the task.If you have any doubts as to whatis required, ask the lecturer - preferably in class so that it is clear toeveryone and there is no ambiguity.continuedMost important of all, NEVERPLAGIARISE.1.5.2 Gathering MaterialTry to start your research early. Thisgives your thinking time to mature,and enables you to revise your firstattempts.It is rarely necessary to read a wholebook from cover to cover in order towrite an essay or report. You mustread selectively, picking out thatwhich is directly relevant to the question. To do this you need to knowwhat you are looking for and the following procedure is useful:a) Start by jotting down what youknow about the topic in a briefitemised list. This will get yourmind thinking about the questionand provide a guide to areas youneed to study further.b) List those questions/topics thatyou think may be relevant to thequestions, even if you know nothing about them. These also givea guide to your reading. As youread you will inevitably discovernew topics and questions. Makea list of these as you go, andfollow them up later.c) Try to use a variety of sources.If the topic area is new to you,start with brief surveys, e.g.encyclopaedia articles andintroductory texts. Use these todiscover the essential topicsand then move on to morespecialised books, researchpapers, journals, etc. asappropriate.d) Your Unit Study Guides andlecture notes may be relevant,but never merely regurgitatethem. Assignments are notdesigned to test factual knowledge in isolation. Look forsources that give opposingviews. Discuss the question withyour fellow students. Neverfollow one source too closely,especiallyifthisisanintroductory text or summary.e) Keep a notebook or file cards foryour notes. When taking notesdon’t rewrite the book - just jotdown the vital points. ALWAYSRECORD THE SOURCE, including the page numbers because: you may need to expand on yournotes when you come to writeyour report, and it is often usefulto look at your source details;and you must give references to thesources of information and ideasused.1.5.3 Planning your AssignmentPlanning is vital for good writtenwork. It provides a structure, whichhelps you to write the report. It showsthe reader that you are in commandof the topic and that you understandwhat the question requires of you. Itgives fluency and helps you to avoidirrelevance. Your plan should consistof a series of brief headings or notes.Never let your source books andjournals dictate your plan – they areunlikely to be written in answer toyour specific question. Following tooclosely the approach taken in sourcematerial may amount to plagiarism,but in any case makes it very difficultfor you to demonstrate that you haveunderstood the material and candevelop your own ideas.The structure should be divided intothe following main sections:IntroductionKeep to less than 10% of the totallength. Comment on the topic andexplain your interpretation of thequestion. Say what areas or aspectsyou intend to cover and those you arenot going to discuss, and why.It is often appropriate to outline theorder of the discussion so as to helpthe reader through your report. It maybe necessary to define some keyterms.
Course Work AssignmentscontinuedMain Body( this is, of course, an inappropriate titlein a report )When planning the main body of thereport, put down your main points ina sensible order – one that willenable your discussion to flow andwhich avoids repetition.Where appropriate expand on thepoints with examples or illustrations.Check that your discussion answersthe question.If the question has two or moreparts, make sure you keep thesedistinct, and allow the properamount of space for each.The main part of your report mayusefully be sub-divided into subsections.ConclusionKeep this to just over 10% of thetotal length. Summarise your mainideas and/or arguments. Ensure thatyour conclusion corresponds to thequestion asked, and that itfollows from the discussion in themain body. It is not always possibleto give a firm answer to a question;instead you may need to explainyour uncertainties.It may be appropriate to suggestthe wider implications of yourdiscussion, or point to futuretrends, or areas that are worthy offurther research.1.5.4 Writing the AssignmentGeneral ApproachYour plan is your guide to thefinished report, but you need notset about writing it in the order inwhich it will finally appear. Manypeople find the introduction is themost difficult part to write. So longas you have made the essentialdecision about what will go into theintroduction (see above) you canleave it unwritten until aftercompleting the main body.Whenever possible, write a firstrough draft and leave it for a shortwhile before reading it throughagain. You will find it far easie
