Learn Barista Skills in One Day, Live Online
A one day online barista course for AED 1,400, taught live by an Authorized SCA Trainer. No experience needed, in Persian or English.
Love coffee and want to learn how to make it like a professional?
Our one day online barista course, priced at AED 1,400, is designed for everyone, from complete beginners and coffee lovers to aspiring baristas. You will learn the essential knowledge and skills needed to understand coffee and develop your barista abilities, all in a focused and convenient one day course.
No previous experience is required
Whether you want to improve your coffee skills, explore a career in the coffee industry, or simply learn something new, this course is a great place to start. You do not need to have worked behind a bar, and you do not need a professional setup at home.
What you will learn
The morning covers the foundations: espresso, grind, dose and extraction, and milk texturing done properly. Alongside that you will cover the theory you need for the exam, taught the way it is actually used behind a bar rather than as something to memorise.
Then you work, and Maryam watches and corrects. That is the part a recorded video cannot give you, and it is the reason the class is taught live rather than pre-recorded.
It is a real SCA certification
This is the official SCA Barista Skills Foundation course, taught by an Authorized SCA Trainer who is also a Q Arabica Grader. Only an Authorized SCA Trainer can run an official SCA class and issue the certificate.
The assessment is taken on the same day, so there is no separate booking and no waiting weeks for a result. Your certificate is issued through the Specialty Coffee Association and is recognised internationally, exactly as an in person certificate is. What changes is where you sit, not what you receive.
What it costs
AED 1,400. That covers the class and the SCA certificate fee. There is nothing further to pay: no separate exam charge, no registration fee.
Invest AED 1,400 in a skill that can open the door to new opportunities and a deeper appreciation of coffee.
When is the next class
The next class runs on 1 October 2026, live online, in one day. Registration is open now and places are limited to a small group so that everyone gets corrected individually.
The class is taught in Persian or English, and you choose which when you register. Most Authorized SCA Trainers teach in English only, so if Persian is your first language this is a rare chance to be taught and assessed in it.
Questions people ask before booking
Do I really need no experience?
None. Foundation is the entry level of the SCA Coffee Skills Programme and it is built for people starting from zero. Plenty of students come from home brewing rather than from a cafe.
Is an online certificate really the same?
Yes. It is issued by the Specialty Coffee Association and it is the same certification, recognised the same way internationally.
What equipment do I need at home?
Message Maryam before booking and she will tell you exactly what you need for your setup. If something is missing she will say so honestly rather than let you book the wrong class.
Can I join from outside the UAE?
Yes. The class is live online and open to students in any country. Checkout supports cards and local payment methods in most countries.
