On Learning Format, Language, and Experience
What learning formats are available for ISGVN courses?
ISG Vietnam offers three official learning formats designed to fit your needs:

- Online Learning: This flexible format allows you to study theory through our online system of on-demand videos. You will be responsible for arranging your own materials for practical tasting sessions according to our guidelines. All final exams must be taken in person at an official hub.
- Hybrid Live: This format combines interactive, real-time online lectures with our instructors, while all guided tastings and final exams are conducted in person.
