Opening a Coffee Shop (2days) - Online

My experience with them is absolutely amazing, and also their customer service is excellent. Jamie he is very helpful he will work with you and he will do his best until you achieve your goal. I like to study with them because for them it’s not just about the money it’s about to help you achieve your dreams, they want to see you succeed. For them doesn’t matter your race or your believes they treat you equally and support you, they listen to you, they have humanity.

The instructors are very knowledgeable and helpful. The customized and transparent information they provided is an eye opener. I said at the very beginning, the concept I learned from this course can be well applied to any business and even to daily life. You might find that coffee shop is not actually your thing at the end of the course, just like me, yet you will appreciate this even more! I definitely recommend this course to anyone who dreamed to be a business owner. It’s a life saver!

I attended the two day "Opening a Coffee Business" Online intensive and it fulfilled all of my expectations. This isn't a sit back and listen course, it is a one on one experience were you need to be fully engaged because it is a combination of education & consultation. Les & Jamie have a wealth of experience and are very approachable, they were not phased by business specifics or introductory questions. Their knowledge can save you from making crucial mistakes that are very prevalent in the current state of Coffee industry & Culture; weaknesses that I was previously blind too. My critique is that the extensive content of the course would be better spread out over 3-4 day period to fully absorb & implement the information into your own model. I highly recommend this course to anyone looking to get serious about launching their business or current management that needs to troubleshoot. Thanks Guys!

Working with Canadian Barista Institute has been great. We're opening a coffee shop and I took all the courses they have to offer. With out them I would not have felt nearly as confident in my skills as a roaster or barista, nor do I think I would've had the knowledge to create products with as much quality. They have given us a lot of good feedback and given us insight in running a business that we would have never thought about. For example how to price your menu (a lot more goes into it then you would think). The people at Canadian Barista Institute are awesome and they know what they're talking about. They make coffee making interesting, simple and fun. I'm also very excited and thankful that even though i have taken all of their courses they still will answer my questions and help me out when ever I need it. They are also completely un biased towards products and machinery, they offer trustworthy insight and are just a great group of people. Highly recommend.

A thoroughly researched and well presented course that prepares you for being part of the coffee industry in Canada. Instructors are highly knowledgable with years of experience and expertise!
