What is a Coffee Master?
Every partner in Starbucks Coffee begins as a coffee explorer. We go through the 2 weeks training program immersing

Through time, a partner will then take an exam to evaluate his/her knowledge on coffee. From the different types of blends down to the tiniest detail on how to have the best coffee the Starbucks way. After passing the exam, the partner will then go through the presentation. Here he/she must be knowledgeable about the coffee that will be presented. From the four steps of coffee tasting down to preparing the right food pairing for the chosen blend.
After passing the presentation, the partner will then be certified as a Coffee Master.
What's next after being a Coffee Master?
Being a coffee master means more than doning a black apron. It gives you the responsibility to share your coffee knowledge with others. Store partners who are coffee masters will eventually be given the chance to facilitate a coffee break (a short lecture tackling different modules available). Support center coffee masters, on the other hand, will be given the chance to join the Ambassador's Cup that happens every other year.
Last night's certification wasn't really something planned, actually it was pretty risky as it really tested how knowledgeable i already am after spearheading a number of coffee break modules for almost a year and a half.
Good thing luck was at my side last night as i was able to make it and finally able to receive my own black apron Ü yahooo!!
