At Capital Wine School, we believe that wine education should be a welcoming and respectful experience for all. We are committed to fostering a learning environment where students, instructors, and staff feel safe, valued, and free to engage in open and thoughtful discussions.
To uphold these values, we expect all members of our community-students, instructors, and staff-to adhere to the following principles:
Respect & Professionalism: We expect respectful dialogue in our classrooms, events, and online spaces. Discrimination, harassment, or disruptive behavior will not be tolerated.
Inclusivity: Our school welcomes individuals of all backgrounds and identities. We strive to create an environment where everyone feels comfortable asking questions and expanding their knowledge.
Constructive Engagement: Conversations about wine may touch on history, culture, and personal experiences. We encourage thoughtful discussions and ask that all participants approach differing perspectives with curiosity and civility.
Social Media & Public Conduct: While we respect the right to personal expression, we expect that any public interactions related to Capital Wine School reflect our values of professionalism and respect.
Enforcement & Consequences
Capital Wine School reserves the right to take appropriate action if an individual’s behavior is inconsistent with these principles. This may include a warning, removal from a course or event, or, in severe cases, banning an individual from future participation.
By participating in Capital Wine School courses or events, all attendees and instructors agree to uphold these principles and contribute to a positive learning environment.
