36 H contact

Barista Professional: six seats, thirty-six hours, one repeatable loop.

Dial in, then keep pace. The programme runs 36 contact hours with at least 80% of that time hands-on at the machine, and no more than six trainees per cohort so every extraction is corrected in the moment.

03 Protocol steps

36 H CONTACT / 6 MODULES

Six modules, one dial-in loop

Modules run in fixed order because each one leans on the last: dose, yield, time, taste, adjust. At least 80% of contact hours are hands-on, and every module closes with a practical assessment before the next begins.

Cohorts are capped at 6 seats so each trainee gets a station and an instructor at a 1:6 ratio.
