Our standard Professional Barista Course runs across 5 days, Monday to Friday, with practical 2-hour sessions each day. We also offer a 10-day advanced program and a weekend option for those working full-time.
Yes. Every Pour & Alchemy course — barista, bartending and the full program — includes a certificate of completion that is recognised by cafés, bars and hospitality employers across Auckland and wider New Zealand.
No experience is needed. Our courses are beginner-friendly and start from the fundamentals. If you already work in a café or bar, we also offer advanced tracks to level up.
