You must be over 14 years of age to participate in this course. You must also have a USI (Unique Student Identifier). A USI is your individual education number for life. It also gives you an online record of your vocational education and training (VET) undertaken in Australia.

As you're doing nationally recognised training, you will need a USI. We can't issue your qualification or statement of attainment until you provide us with your USI. If you don't hold a USI yet or can't remember your number, go to https://www.usi.gov.au/ before enrolling.

Upon successful completion of this course you will be emailed your electronic certificate and awarded a nationally recognised Statement of Attainment.

You will be assessed by trainers with the relevant qualifications in accordance with the Australian Qualifications Skills Authority (ASQA). This assessment will take the form of direct observation of practical tasks and written questioning which will take place throughout the day.

This course is delivered face-to-face at the Macarthur Centre for Sustainable Living. Class sizes are kept small to give you the maximum time possible practicing to make great coffee. Please note that if minimum enrolment numbers are not met your scheduled course may be cancelled. If this occurs you will be offered a full refund or the option to move your enrolment to the next available course.

You should wear enclosed leather shoes and bring a pen. The cost of the course also includes a light lunch.
