We have been charging a professional fee for the value we deliver in having our participants learnt more about gourmet coffee. Read what others have to say after attending our workshop. We cannot afford to operate with “No fees, no courses, no hidden extras, just plain straight out free information...no huff and puff...!”...be wary of claims that provide “FREE Barista Training!” in the market.

Highlander Coffee Barista Accreditation (Pro Level III)

There is no lack of barista competitions, bright and certified judges, “sanctioned bodies” in the coffee world. (READ; in our opinion, an excellent article on “What’s Wrong with the WBC”). Competition is definitely a good thing created to raise the standard of professional coffee making in the world. It should however, not just be another means to an end (“...to compete for the riches”). What is scarce sadly are individuals really committed to making and serving a good cup coffee consistently to customers. It is rare to find folks that possess that true passion for coffee.

You must believe what we stand for and have the sincere desire to work with us or be our partner when the opportunity arises. You should have completed our Pro Level I & II workshops and have undergone a face-to-face interview with us before we decide if you got what it takes to succeed. Through a stringent theory and practical interviews and tests, we will assess and determine if you fit the bill. More details will be out! EXPRESS YOUR INTEREST!
