* INTERMEDIATE & PROFESSIONAL NOTES
The Specialty Coffee Association requires that all Intermediate and Professional certifications be issued in person with an AST.
We do not certify advanced SCA courses online.
We have all theory and practical skills you need for advanced SCA courses prepared.
After studying this Primer, consider how:
- You can host an advanced SCA testing event for an AST to test you in person. Or...
- You can travel to an advanced SCA testing event scheduled by one of our ASTs or partner ASTs.
