How much does the SCA barista certificate cost? Does the SCA certificate of baristas have high gold content? is it easy for SCA baristas to find a job?

Today, let's talk about the SCA barista certificate. Two months ago, the editor took the SCA barista Primary Certificate and the SCA barista Intermediate Certificate. Today, let's talk about whether it is easy to find a job after taking the SCA Coffee Certificate. Finding a job depends on what kind of job you are looking for, such as whether you want to work in a chain coffee shop or a boutique coffee shop, or if you want to be a coffee shop owner. Then I will analyze the pros and cons of the SCA baristas certificate for the above options.

First of all, for chain assembly coffee shops and online celebrity coffee shops, the content of the SCA barista exam is very useful. Most of the clerks are coffee rookies or people who don't understand it at all. SCA baristas include espresso production, basic understanding of coffee beans, hygiene management, and details of customer service. It can be said that it completely includes all the work of this kind of coffee shop. If you can get an SCA intermediate barista, you can also learn about the contents of coffee flowers, as well as the flavor of different coffee treatments, the extraction understanding of espresso, the adjustment and troubleshooting of coffee machines, and the operation of coffee shops. It can be said that this knowledge and skills reserve is not far away from being a store manager. Then talk about whether the degree of the boutique coffee shop can be satisfied? Generally speaking, in a boutique coffee shop, in addition to the production of milk coffee, there are also hand-brewed coffee, iced coffee and so on. SCA baristas don't have hand-brewed coffee or iced coffee. These contents are only available in the SCA cooking course, and you have to take the extra cooking course. So what it learns is not enough for the work of boutique coffee shops. The last common situation is that you want to be a boss. Is it enough for SCA baristas to be a boss? As mentioned above, if you want to open a store in the form of an online celebrity coffee shop, it is sufficient, and a certificate can highlight your level of knowledge. But it is not enough to open a boutique coffee shop, and you still have to learn a lot about coffee in order to hold the name of boutique coffee.

Is the SCA barista certificate rich in gold? Here is a brief introduction to SCA. SCA full name SCA boutique coffee association is composed of SCAA American boutique coffee association and SCAE European boutique coffee association. The SCA boutique Coffee Association is a global non-profit organization that represents thousands of areas of expertise ranging from coffee production to baristas around the world.

The SCAA / SCAESCAA American Fine Coffee Association was founded in 1982 by Magazine SCAE Europe Boutique Coffee in 1998. The two associations were formally merged into one organization in January 2017.

Except for the introduction of coffee (10 points), the other sections are divided into primary (5 points), intermediate (10 points) and advanced (25 points). Upon completion of each level, there will be a certificate of the corresponding level that can be applied for. When any combination of credits has completed 100 points, you can apply for the SCA Coffee Diploma. To sum up, the gold content of SCA barista certificate is quite high.

Generally speaking, the common combination in China is the connection of single-module primary and intermediate courses, with fees ranging from 7000 to 9000; advanced courses are generally not open, and if they are open, they are more than 10,000 yuan.

Is SCA theory useful?

As mentioned above, chain coffee shops and online celebrity coffee shops are completely enough, even more than many. But it's not enough in boutique coffee shops. You have to take a SCA brewing course or teach yourself the theory of hand brewing. Whether it works or not depends on where you use it. And SCA's theory is not absolutely correct, there is no absolute truth, more rely on our own practice and exploration.
