The Q Venue Program creates a global, verified network of quality facilities for cupping, sensory and processing education designed to meet the specific instructional needs of all CQI courses. CQI Q Venues can be used in many ways; from instructors hosting courses, to development project trainings, and as a lab for coffee quality assessment. CQI will work with you to assess which Q Venue certification is the right fit for your needs.
CQI provides three types of certification for Q Venues: Q Venue, Q Venue Processing and Q Venue Professional.
Locations certified with Coffee Quality Institute attract work through evaluation and education, and let the world know that they meet international standards. To find out if becoming a Q Venue is right for you, contact Kim Cosgrove at kta@coffeeinstitute.org
