Organisation
The SCA has certified selected experts to administer exams within the framework of the Coffee Skills Programme. Our trainers conduct the courses with the learning objectives defined by the SCA. Our instructor and trainer have the authority to administer the examinations in various modules on behalf of the SCA. The diploma is issued directly by the SCA. The examinations can also be taken without attending a course. For this procedure we recommend in-depth practical and theoretical knowledge of the corresponding module.
