The SCA Skill Diploma System
Passing just one exam does not make a student a professional.
Handling a profession, as a barista, roaster, taster and green coffee expert, requires expertise in various areas of the coffee world.
This is why SCA created the Coffee Skills Diploma, to create a path that certifies professional competence in a defined sector of the coffee supply chain.
What are the SCA skills diplomas?
SCA divided the coffee world into four professional areas, and therefore into four specialization paths:
- SCA Coffee diploma
- SCA Roastery Diploma
- SCA Trade Diploma
- SCA Sustainable Coffee Diploma
