Employment experience in the required industry must be verified by 3rd party recommendation. In addition to the objective inquiries, an essay pertaining to the Foundation's mission is required upon which subjective decisions may be made.

Restrictions
The purpose of the foundation awards are to provide financial assistance to those United States residents who are actively engaged in the industries related to the production, sale or service of craft alcohol (e.g. fine wine, craft beer or distilled spirits), and who seek to enhance their skills or knowledge by completing educational, experiential or professional certification programs that would likely help them advance in their career. The awards are thus restricted to those meeting such qualifications.
