Brewing industry executives and those considering entering the industry need to know the ins-and-outs of professional brewery operations in order to make effective financial & managerial decisions. Now, the World Brewing Academy introduces a way to learn the basics of brewery dynamics without the need to travel to our Chicago or Munich campuses.

The World Brewing Academy’s web-based Executive Overview of the Brewing Process course allows executives, administrative staff, and brewing-industry decision makers around the globe to participate in professional-level English-language training over the Internet. Participants study as their schedule permits, and can utilize the resources of their own brewery for practical application of their course materials.

Designed exclusively for the World Brewing Academy, the software employed in our web-based training (WBT) program uses state-of-theart Internet tools including Internet Chat Rooms, instant messaging and "white board" facilities that will allow students to consult with our world-class brewing industry faculty. Many presentations are accompanied by full instructor narration, maximizing student comprehension of even the most complex topics. Our student facilitator is available via e-mail or chat room to make sure your educational experience is as complete as possible. Although our program uses advanced features, students require only basic experience in computers to navigate through the WBT Executive Overview of the Brewing Process course.

While our web-based delivery is impressive, it is our course content of which we are most proud. The Executive Overview offers an extensive range of topics covering each critical area of brewing technology.
