None of the alchemy specialisations works for Warlords of Draenor Alchemy. They still work on old world content.
Legion Edit (28th August 2016): Just like in WoD, Alchemy specialisations do not work for Legion recipes. However, with Legion there are several recipes ranks that will make some crafts cost less reagents, or even have a chance to yield additional items (Like the how the specialisations used to work pre-WoD). You can find a lot of useful information regarding Legion recipes ranks, how to get them and their benefits at the official Wowhead Legion Alchemy guide: Legion Alchemy Guide by WowheadBattle for Azeroth edit (Super late I know): Like in the past 2 expansions, alchemy specialisations do not work with BfA recipes, but just like in legion each craft has its unique rank system that make the recipe work like the old specialisations at rank 3. Likely won't ever see alchemy specialisations make a comeback for new recipes

The process for changing alchemy specs has changed!
You no longer have to visit any of the npcs in BC, it can all be done in your home city.
- First, to unlearn your current spec there is a button on your Professions tab in your spellbook that says "Unlearn this specialization."
- Second, you return to your alchemy trainer and accept the appropriate quest for the new spec. They are: Elixir Master, Potion Master, and Transmutation Master. Complete the quest and you earn the new specialization.
Thankfully they made this change, but the only thing worse than the old method of flying to BC locations is flying there for no reason. Please vote this up so people can find the info easily.
Alchemy Specialization Changes in 5.0.5
In Mist of Pandaria - How to obtain a new Alchemy Specialization has Changed.
Before Selecting a new Specialization, you must first get rid of your old one. To do so, Open up your professions tab and beside your alchemy specialization icon, there will be a RED Cross out symbol (Just like dropping an actual profession).
All you do is hit that to unlearn your current specialization.Once you have done that, the alchemy trainer in Stormwind City or Orgrimmar will open up the 3 quest below. Pick one and bring back the required items and you have a new Alchemy Specialization! Choose carefully, the mats turn in are not cheap !
