CCP Level One

Become a Certified Cider Professional!
Level 1 CCP certification is designed as a fundamental course for those interested in developing their basic understanding of cider and cider principles. It is a prerequisite for the second level of certification, the Certified Pommelier™.

The first level CCP qualifier is offered as an online exam. The exam is 60 questions long in multiple choice format. You must score 85% to pass, and you get two attempts per exam fee in a 30-day period. The exam comes in a test-prep bundle that includes a study guide and an on-demand training webinar.
