Course Offerings

Upon successfully completing the Commercial Craft Brewing (CCB) course, students are ready to apply their skills in a working commercial brewery. This internship course provides real-world applications for CCB graduates: They will be paired with Triangle area breweries and expected to execute tasks such as wort production, cellar work, packaging, cleaning, and sanitation under the supervision of professional brewers. Interns will be expected to work 140 total hours in various areas of beer production over 16 weeks. Throughout the term, they will perform measurable learning outcomes, complete a time sheet, and meet weekly with the instructor to discuss progress. Interns will have opportunities to network with area breweries, develop career skills, and receive guidance in seeking employment.

The course includes a two hour orientation at the start of the term and a two hour debrief at the end. After successfully fulfilling the internship requirements, students will be awarded the Certificate of Professional Beer Brewing from Wake Tech.
