The course at Samen Academy gave my barista career a flying start. The lessons were practical, informative, and most importantly, a lot of fun.
I got acquainted with Samen Academy courses in Italy. If you want to work in the Netherlands and hear 'I'm happy with you' from your manager, participate in the practical barista course at Samen.
