Diageo India has partnered with the Wine & Spirit Education Trust (WSET) to launch a transformative initiative for women in the bar industry. Powered by the Diageo Bar Academy, the program offers WSET Level 1 Spirits training, providing women bartenders and junior professionals with globally recognized certification.

By combining WSET’s globally respected training standards with the expertise of the Diageo Bar Academy, the initiative strengthens the industry’s commitment to inclusion, mentorship, and innovation. With this landmark program, Diageo India continues to lead efforts to redefine hospitality in India, ensuring a more diverse and skilled workforce.
