Java Republic is Leading the way in Coffee Education in Ireland
A good few years ago when I was starting my coffee adventure I discovered that the SCAE (Speciality Coffee Association of Europe) Coffee Diploma System was the path to follow and feed my hunger for a greater knowledge of coffee. After becoming the first person in Ireland to achieve the Full Coffee Diploma, I’ve decided to become an Authorised SCAE Trainer, (one of the first in the country also), to be able to give to others what was given to me. As Coffee Development Manager at Java Republic, I want to ensure that our company is one of the leaders in coffee education, and delivers the highest standard in training throughout the entire country, which is why our staff have become Authorised SCAE Trainers (ASTs), and offer barista and brewing modules.

This is what our trainers have to say about it:
Renata Malyszko
“Becoming an AST is a huge achievement for my professional career. Coffee is my passion and I have always wanted to share this passion with others. As a Quality Consultant and Trainer at Java Republic I can share my passion for coffee with those who want to start working with coffee in a professional capacity, or if they are just interested in coffee and want to learn more.”
Gerry Hughes
“I have been an AST for over a year now and it fills me with enthusiasm to know that we are backed up with certification from a world recognised organisation (SCAE). Training people who have the desire to learn is amazing and fulfilling by helping them onto the next step on their path to becoming a world recognised Barista.”
Monika Mak
“It is a fantastic opportunity to be part of the SCAE community, and avail of all the benefits that this organisation brings- such as workshops, AST live, camps and much more. People in the coffee industry have this special bond that I believe not many others do, so I’m really looking forward to starting the AST journey and exploring this entire new world that SCAE has to offer.”
The journey to becoming an authorized speciality trainer is not an easy one. It takes long hours of study and dedication, but also requires that the individual has a real love and passion for coffee. I’m very proud of our team and all they have achieved and I’m excited about the higher standards of education we will be achieving here at Java Republic.
Until next time,
Vini
