CQI Q Processing Professional

Q Processing Professional – by Coffee Quality Institute (CQI). 

A continuation of the Q Processing Generalist, Q Processing Professional is a six-day field-based course where learners deepen their theoretical knowledge of the main processing methods, learn best practices, and gain hands-on experience with a quality control system for post-harvest processing. With this content, students will begin to develop the skill sets necessary to achieve different flavor profiles through processing. The course takes place in a producing country during the harvest season, and involves lectures, team activities, applied lessons, and cuppings. It is a hands-on and collaborative learning experience fit for the practical needs of the producing side of industry.

To be certified, attendees must pass both theoretical (written) and practical tests. Students who pass will be awarded a professional license as a Q Processing Professional.

This is a 6-day field-based course at a coffee producing origin.
