The University of Richmond School of Professional & Continuing Studies, in partnership with craft brewing partners located throughout Virginia and beyond, offers a diverse range of courses designed for individuals seeking to enter or advance in the craft brewing industry — a booming sector that’s nearly 10,000 breweries strong, generating almost $30 billion in annual sales. Our courses are listed below, and completion of each course earns a digital badge.

We’ve developed two new advanced brewing education courses designed for current and prospective brewing managers and entrepreneurs. Leadership for the Brewing Industry provides a comprehensive foundation for leading successfully in the brewing industry, and Financial Training for the Craft Brewing Industry provides practical financial training to improve business profitability and sustainability.
