As the modules evolve, participants will gain a deeper understanding of the coffee itself and they will strengthen their practical skills in milk techniques and latte art, not to mention health and safety, customer service and basic business operation.

This 1-day introductory course is designed for those who are relatively new to the coffee industry and does not require previous barista experience. It includes practicing and “written” online exam (20 questions with a required success rate of 60%).
